May 16, 2024
Williams Machinery has been offering premium equipment from DEVELON (formerly known as Doosan) for over a decade in Western Canada. While many Wheel Loader machines go to industries of construction and earthmoving, one of our customers thinks outside the box taking advantage of the rail knuckle attachment from AMI Attachments. This allows the machine to transport up to twenty rail cars around rail yards with ease.
Transporting Rail Cars with Develon Wheel Loaders
The rail car coupler maximizes the capability of your wheel loader by providing a safe and efficient solution to move railcars around yard and cargo spaces.
The DEVELON wheel loader line-up has a wide range of machines with varied capabilities with the DL580-7 has the ability to lift up to 25,000 kg/55,100 lbs. This comes in handy for moving materials and earthmoving, but with the rail knuckle this capability transforms into the ability to transport up to twenty full-sized railcars around the yards and port tracks.
This attachment works on the entire DEVELON Wheel Loader line-up from the DL200-7 to the DL580-7 models. Even the DL200-7 can transport multiple rail cars at once using this attachment!
Not only can the wheel loader help with logistics and rail car transport you can take advantage of the machine’s strong lift capability, but it’s also easy to load and unload railcars with materials or items.
