Harsco Rail’s TRT-909 track renewal system provides a more efficient method to handling major track renewal programs. The TRT-909 works with concrete, pre-plated wood, or steel ties. It delivers simplicity in operation for customers and leaves behind high quality track with precise tie spacing and a smooth ballast bed.
Spike pullers remove the field side spikes and leave the gauge side spike to hold the tie plate in a fixed position. There is one spike puller located over each rail. A magnetic spike pick-up wheel reclaims the spikes after they have been pulled.
The old crossties are lifted from the roadbed and placed on the conveyor by the Old Tie Pick-Up Mechanism. The old ties are then transported by conveyors to a staging area where a gantry collects them for transport to storage areas on the flatcars.
