The St. Albert location is Backtrack’s head office and central distribution hub — the shop that keeps our locations across Canada stocked and supplied. You’ll find us on Corriveau Avenue, right off the Anthony Henday and minutes from Edmonton, with a large secure yard and easy truck access. It’s a full-service railway tool supply and repair centre — and it’s also home to Backtrack Forest & Garden, our STIHL dealership. Rail crew, transit operator, contractor, or homeowner: this is the place.

Backtrack’s Head Office & Distribution Hub
St. Albert is our main stocking location — the warehouse that supplies our other four stores. In practice, that means the deepest inventory we carry is right here: tools, parts, and the hard-to-find and legacy components MOW crews need, ready to go. Our large, secure yard lets us store larger machines on behalf of customers, and we deliver goods directly to local rail yards.
Serving Edmonton-Area Railways
Edmonton is CN territory, and St. Albert sits right at its edge. From here we supply and service the Maintenance-of-Way crews, railway contractors, and transit rail operations across the Edmonton region — including Edmonton Transit Service (ETS). Being local means we know the customers, the yards, and the equipment, and we can get tools, parts, and service where they’re needed, fast.
Backtrack Forest & Garden — Your Local STIHL Store
St. Albert is also home to Backtrack Forest & Garden, our STIHL dealership and dedicated outdoor power equipment store. We carry STIHL’s full lineup of battery and gas-powered chainsaws, trimmers, blowers, and outdoor equipment, plus the parts, accessories, and expert service to keep them running. To better serve local lawn-and-garden customers, our St. Albert shop keeps extended hours — open until 5:00 PM Tuesday through Friday and 10:00 AM–2:00 PM Saturdays. Come talk to people who actually know the equipment.
Machine Demos & On-Site Service
Considering a piece of equipment before you buy? We run machine demonstrations — on our own yard or at your site — so you can see a tool work in real conditions first. We also deliver to local rail yards and provide on-site service throughout the region.
25 Years in St. Albert
Backtrack started in Edmonton in 1996 and moved to our current St. Albert home in 2001 — we’ve been here for more than two decades. Our COO, Aaron Oligny, has been with Backtrack since the very beginning and is based right here in St. Albert. When you deal with our head office, you’re dealing with the people who built this company.
