Germantown, WI – As a Railway Industry Specialist at WAGO Cooperation, Nancy supports customers throughout the nation – from companies manufacturing railway cars to developers driving infrastructure advancements.

“I am the main contact for many public transit companies who enjoy using our railway terminal blocks,” Nancy said.

WAGO provides innovative products that help public transit run smoothly – from electrical systems to automation. Many of the customers Nancy supports are able to advance their projects thanks to significant federal investments in railway expansion. With the investments, manufacturers and developers can modernize their infrastructure and technology using products like the ones WAGO develops, in turn improving the public transit networks that fuel America’s economy.

When customers have the federal funding they need, they are able to work with private companies like WAGO to expand their infrastructure – supporting jobs like Nancy’s and the 225 other roles at WAGO’s Wisconsin Headquarters. And more reliable, efficient public transportation systems are better for the hundreds of thousands of workers who rely on public transit to get to work each day.

“The people that build and use these railway products and systems in Wisconsin provide a consistent influx of capital to the economy,” Nancy reflects. “And it continues to grow.”
