Overview
RHG delivers integrated rail services in Australia, covering rail safety compliance, workforce development, training, and rail infrastructure through its divisions RMC Rail Services, RTS Rail Operations, Railtrain (RTO), and McDonald Surveys. It combines below-rail construction, maintenance, and civil work with above-rail services like train crew supply and training to offer end-to-end solutions from a single provider, including tailored recruitment programs such as Street to Seat. The group differentiates itself with specialized, complementary capabilities, national coverage across Australia, and leadership with deep railway experience to manage complex projects. Its goal is to grow national rail infrastructure capability and end-to-end project delivery, in line with GenusPlus Group’s 2026 agreement to acquire RHG and broaden reach.
