Slot Machine
Multi-Purpose
Work Platform
From Alaska to Mexico, the Slot Machine has been helping
maintain railroads since 1992. It consists of a series of
short gondolas without the end bulkheads. The onboard excavator
is free to move throughout the unit (378 feet) while seated
safely on the floor. Since the excavator works from the floor
of the car, short work windows can be used effectively. Set-up
and lock down of the equipment takes only minutes, allowing
almost the entire work window to be used productively. The
versatility of the Slot Machine allows performance of a wide
variety of maintenance jobs with the same machine.
