WHY WE MADE IT
In 2011, we built the first attachment-based hi-rail system for backhoe loaders, without permanently modifying the machine.
The industry said it couldn’t be done with excavators. The X1 proved otherwise.
Now the X2 takes it further: patent-pending wedge-locking adapters, modular architecture, and a simpler, cleaner install for 6T through 25T track excavators.
Because contractors don’t need more dedicated machines sitting in the yard.
- They need faster access.
- Better mobility.
- And a smarter way to get work done in remote rail environments.
From bridge work and tie jobs to vegetation management, switch maintenance, and emergency access, DymaxRail solutions are built to solve the everyday challenges faced by maintenance of way crews.
