Shuttlewagon SWX 420 - 2025

The Shuttlewagon Commander series defines railcar switching operations for today’s needs. Powerful, versatile and reliable, it incorporates the most advanced technologies available to ensure that safety and reliability are never compromised. The Shuttlewagon SWX 420 has a tractive effort of 30,000 lb, allowing it to move heavy loads effectively and efficiently in a variety of industrial applications.

Main Features

  • Maximum Tractive Effort: Up to 30,000 lbs from a single coupler, enabling efficient operation in a variety of conditions.
  • Full-Width Cab: Provides panoramic visibility and features a swiveling operator console, improving safety by reducing blind spots.
  • Rail Guidance System: Includes a guidance system that provides stable and safe navigation, making it easier to move through tight curves.
  • Air-Suspension Seats: Two ergonomically designed seats that provide comfort during long work shifts, helping reduce operator fatigue.
  • “Air-Knife” System: This advanced system dries the rails in adverse weather conditions, increasing operating capacity by up to 50% and improving safety.

Our CANbus electrical system uses state-of-the-art technology, offering features and benefits to operators and maintenance personnel that were previously unavailable. The operator can now view all critical information about the railcar mover’s readiness on the computer display. Maintenance personnel can access diagnostic information for the engine and other components, reducing downtime for maintenance.

The full-width crossover cab has complete 360-degree visibility, a 72-inch roof height, sliding windows, and a 180-degree rotating console. Rail operations can be conducted from either of the two operator seats, which have four-way positioning on each side of the cab. Roof-mounted defroster fans, map lights, red/white roof lights, and power adapter receptacles are all easily accessible.

Our anti-lock braking system (ABS) and anti-slip traction control (ATC) prevent tire slippage along the rail during braking, as well as excessive tire spin during movement. Since the system is automatic and reacts much faster than an operator, it greatly improves tire life and allows the operator to focus on maneuvering activities.
