Railroad Equipment

Railroad Machinery Hauling Requires Specialized Care

At Cowtown, we understand better than anyone how challenging railroad machinery hauling can be.

While railway equipment is designed to make traveling across America easy, transporting this equipment to remote locations takes special skill and care. Thankfully, our railroad equipment transportation company knows just how to handle this heavy machinery with care.

Types of Heavy Railroad Equipment We Usually Transport

Our drivers transport railroad machinery across the country with professional care, from cabooses and boxcars to axles and other large components.

Railcars and Major Rolling Stock

Cabooses, box cars, locomotives, subway car shipping, and other rolling-stock equipment.

Maintenance and Track Equipment

Tie cranes, spike pullers, tamping machine transport, speed swings, and other maintenance assets.

Specialty Rail Transport Assets

Push cars, personnel carriers, railroad axles, cable cars, monorails, aerial tramways, and trolleys.

Railroad Shipping Solutions

Our Heavy Railroad Machinery Freight Shipping Solutions

We offer a number of solutions to transport heavy machinery and goods, tapping into a range of shipping methods backed by years of experience to ensure equipment arrives safely.
Flatbed
Our flatbed solutions are the ideal solution for easy access for smooth loading and unloading of materials from any angle. For your heavy machinery, we can easily utilize cranes and forklifts to move your heavier loads.
Double Drop
Designed specifically to carry taller loads, ideal for heavy railroad machinery, a double drop truck offers a cargo bed that can go as low as 18 inches off the ground. This design allows for heightened height clearance, and boosts the safety of transporting these large goods.
RGN
Similar to a double drop, an RGN trailer can get lower to the ground for larger materials transportation. This can include a ramp for equipment to be driven onto for convenient loading and unloading.
Oversized Load Hauling
Designed for any machinery that is over 8.5 feet wide, our oversized load hauling services ensure that your large machinery arrives safely with special care. With careful specifications and expertise, our oversized load hauling will carefully load and transport your goods without damage.
FTL Freight Shipping
Full Truckload Shipping, or FTL, offers a number of benefits. Since your products are only loaded and unloaded one time as you obtain the full load, we can increase security and limit damage from multiple handlings of your goods that may occur with LTL.
Step Deck
A step deck truck offers both a lower and upper deck, with a design that makes it easier to load and unload equipment. Ideal for transporting heavy machinery, a forklift can be utilized when loading and unloading this style of truck for seamless transportation of heavy goods.
