Road-rail heavy vehicle 4x4

The reason of double track vehicles, called Road-rail vehicles, is not a travel on both road and railways but they are built for service actions and works provided on railways inaccessible by road. The vehicle have to access the railway at the crossing with the road and then is able to continue the travel on rails.

Our Road-Rail vehicle has been built on 4x4 chassis of MAN TGM. Cabin of that vehicle can accommodate 5 people + driver.

Rail drive of that vehicle consists of 4 solid steel wheels that takes power from a road tires by a drum installed by each wheel and hence is able to brake by all 4 wheels as well.

We've already designed and built a number of road-rail vehicles intended for drive on trams' and trains' tracks of gauge 1000 mm and 1435 mm and we are able to provide vehicles for any other rail sizes.

We can provide completed commercial vehicles equipped with front or rear crane, elevating work platform of various size, capacity and outreach or provide naked rail chassis for your company assembly as well as bespoke design for your production.

TECHNICAL DATA OF GEAR DRIVEN RAIL DRIVE:

  • Forward drive speed - 70 kph (electronically restricted to 60 kph)
  • Backwards drive 14 kph
  • Max total mass of the vechicle 18 ton

The base chassis (MAN TGM) is equipped with automatic type gearbox containing 12 forward and 2 revers stages.
