Showed up on a screen for solid 5 year growth with low debt, cash on hand and still at attractive P/E ratios.

One of the big things for Wabtec is that they are the leaders in the PTC (positive train control) technology. Congress has mandated that this technology be in the system by 2015 installed. Wabtec leads in the brake supplies and hence in the information for the brake distance information. This will be 60 soon.

Absolutely one of my top picks. WAB is situated to take advantage of both the existing market for the rail industy by providing superior replacement/repair product, and of the future markets for more efficient rail and subway components. This is a financially conservative company, with no debt, fair amount of cash on hand, and a much higher than average ROE.

Looks like it has consistently outperformed the S&P 500 and I don't see that changing with it's strong financials in a growing industry.

They make railroad equipment parts - what is big now? Mass transit and railroads. Not just in the USA but across the world - mass-transit is booming.

In my personal portfolio.

WAB is perfectly positioned to capitalize on the opportunity created by high energy prices and deteriorating rail infrastructures around the world. High oil prices will shift a larger portion of people and stock transportation back to the railroads. Most rail equipment has been neglected for years, from stock/freight cars to people transit cars, and its time to upgrade them in anticipation of increased use in the years to come. WAB is an extension on the overall Railroad move and its niche area of inceased efficiency for this industry will mean great growth.
WAB has been around for many many years and has an established international presence. Huge international contracts and large growth potential. Big earnings report today also.

Wabtec? WTF!?!?!?

services the rail industry. seems to me that the rails are going to be used more heavily for both mas transit and freight. companies supplying parts to this should be seeing increased earnings.
