skEYEwatch had spent years building fleet camera systems and telematics platforms for commercial vehicles — concrete trucks, waste fleets, towing operations, first responders. The hardware was rugged. The platform was proven. But when the railroad industry came calling, it became clear that surveillance technology alone wasn't enough. Rail is a world unto itself — different terminology, different regulations, different operational realities, and buyers who could spot an outsider in the first conversation.
L&M Locomotive brought what skEYEwatch didn't have: decades of railroad field experience, a multigenerational understanding of how locomotives are maintained, operated, and repaired, and a network of relationships across short-line operators, Class I roads, and industrial rail facilities throughout North America. When Matt Martin at L&M and Bill Callahan at skEYEwatch started talking, the partnership was obvious. RAILvue was the result.
Today RAILvue delivers what neither company could have built alone — rail-grade camera hardware and cloud platform built on proven surveillance technology, shaped by people who have spent careers working on and around locomotives.
