conveyor, or transportation company


Explanation:
According to http://iwiw.hu/ISDDunaferrZRT.Szallitomu, this is a company, "vasúti járműjavító üzem" suggest same, Dunaferr Zrt. is a big company anyway, so I'd use the second until I found something better. Outside the company context, the translation is the first one found also in dictionaries.

"művek", in plural, was also a very usual name for a production company in Hungary (mostly in socialist times), now much less often used. "mű" in "szállítómű" is a form used from those times.

Notes to answerer
Asker: If you look at Dunaferr Zrt. Dunaujvaros on Google Maps, you can a lot of railroad tracks there, like some kind of marshalling yard. Does the transportation refer to this, or to transportation outside of the company premises?

agree  Ildiko Santana: Szerintem a conveyor nem illik ide, a transportation company lesz a jó. Lásd még: villamosmű/vek - power company/companies

A fordítók bosszantására itt "plant" szó szerepel a "mű" fordítása gyanánt. A felháborodott kritikákat célszelszerű közvetlenül a vállalatnak megküldeni.
