Post-Frame Building Materials in North Platte, NE

North Platte’s Source for Railroad Country Shops, Ag Buildings & Post-Frame Construction

Lincoln County’s economy runs on two tracks: the Union Pacific Railroad, which employs thousands at Bailey Yard and related maintenance facilities, and the cattle and grain agriculture that stretches across the rolling plains in every direction from North Platte. Contractors building here work in both worlds — industrial maintenance facilities, equipment storage, and commercial buildings serving the railroad workforce, and the hay barns, livestock facilities, and commodity storage that agricultural operations require. Post-frame construction serves both markets with the clear spans, speed, and cost efficiency that neither market can afford to give up.

Western Building Supply serves North Platte from our manufacturing facility in Wheatland, Wyoming, with delivery across the central Nebraska high plains. We engineer every truss, steel panel, and laminated column for the wind exposure of the open Platte River valley, where the absence of terrain breaks means severe weather arrives with its full force intact. Our steel panels are specified for the hail impact and UV demands of this region, and our trusses are designed for the wide bays that both railroad and agricultural operations require.

When North Platte contractors need materials built for railroad country’s demands, they call Western.
