RAILROAD EQUIPMENT TRANSPORT SERVICES

1.) The trucks (railroad wheels) have been removed. The car is sitting on wooden blocks. 2.) The current owner says the green fence between the tracks and the train car can be removed to facilitate the move. 3.) The train car was moved to it's current location on a flatbed semi trailer, so my assumption is that it meets all height/width regulations to move by semi. 4.) Will need assistance/equipment to load/unload.  

 

This car is mostly wooden construction, with steel beams running underneath. The car is 55 feet long, but has been cut in half. So you will be moving TWO sections of 27.5 feet length each. So you will need either two trucks, or to make two trips. The 20,000 lbs weight is an estimate. The car weighed 107,000 lbs when built, but the trucks (wheels and undercarriage), as well as the four heavy electric motors, and the interior have been removed. So the car probably weighs less than half it's original weight. It is mostly wood. Also, the car will be moved in TWO sections to make it lighter. The car is in fragile condition, but it has been cross-braced inside and will be wrapped with 12 mil shrink-wrap to make it stable for the move. The fence seen in the photos will be removed. I would LOVE to find a trucker who can handle the loading, but if you cannot just tell me when you bid. A crane CANNOT be used to lift due to the powerlines overhead. It will have to be lifted with an industrial forklift or semi wrecker. Mats will have to be placed on the grass to prevent sinking. We will HAVE to coordinate on the moving date, because I have to coordinate with the other parties involved  

Locomotive would have to be winched on and off the rear of a trailer. It is going from one display rail to another. I don’t think a traditional LowBoy trailer, that disconnects at the front would work.  

 

WE have no way to load or unload caboose. You must be able to do this as well as transport  

 

Height is with wheels removed. Wheels need to be transported along with the boxcar. The weight of the wheels is included in the total weight. Each set of wheels is about 5’ x 5’ (and there are two sets of wheels). A crane - provided by the customer (not the shipper) will load and unload the box car and wheels.  

Unit rolls on steel wheels, it is a rail car so there is no steering.
