RMS Locotec is a railway company based in Wolsingham, England. It has specialised in industrial railway management, infrastructure maintenance, and rolling stock leasing; one major customer was its former sister company and rail freight operator DCRail.
RMS Locotec was founded in April 1992, initially operating second-hand 0-4-0 and Class 08 0-6-0 shunter locomotives. During 2008, it was purchased by British American Railway Services. Throughout much of the 2010s, RMS Locotec leased six Class 31 and six Class 56 locomotives to DCRail. In June 2020, RMS Locotec was sold to the consortium Proviso Holdings.
