Shuttlewagon SWX 315 - 2025

The Shuttlewagon SWX 315, 2025 model, is a railcar mover designed to deliver powerful, versatile performance for material handling in industrial environments. This equipment is known for its reliability and efficiency, making it ideal for operations that require moving freight cars at rail and transportation facilities.

Main Features

Maximum Tractive Effort: Up to 27,000 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.
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.
Rubber Tires: Unlike traditional railcar movers that use steel wheels, the SWX 315 uses rubber tires, which provide better traction and a smoother ride while reducing track wear.
Easy Engine Access: The design simplifies preventive maintenance, ensuring a lower total cost of ownership and greater equipment durability.

Modern Electrical Components

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.

Cab and Console

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.

ABS and ATC

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.
