YOU DON’T NEED A HI RAIL EXCAVATOR. YOU NEED HI-RAIL ACCESS.
The Dymax Rail Rider X2 converts new or existing excavators for rail work — without permanently modifying the machine.
Install it in days. Remove it when the job is done.


How the X2 Attaches — Without Modifying Your Machine
- Wedge-locking adapters (patent-pending) create a secure connection between the X2 undercarriage and the machine.
- The excavator sits fully supported on the X2 structure—not cantilevered off the ends of the frame—for improved stability, safety, and machine support.
- Modular front and rear railgear assemblies remove for off-track work.
- Pre-hosed hi-rail system designed for simplified dealer or in-shop installation.

CONTINUED ROI
A permanently-modified excavator is a depreciating asset. At the end of its lifecycle, the only person who wants it is another rail contractor.
You invested nearly 7-figures in that machine. The next owner didn’t — and now they’re bidding against you.
Are you funding your own competition?
The Dymax Rail Rider X2 is different.
Keep the X2 railgear. Sell the excavator. Re-invest the savings.
