BTE CRIBBER ATTACHMENT (btequip.com)
Booth #4075 (REMSA)

The Ballast Tool Equipment (BTE) CRIBBER attachment is derived from BTE’s industry leading trencher-style undercutter and features the company’s proprietary carbide-protected cutting chain that is proven to withstand wear even in the toughest of conditions. Its continuous action allows for a faster, more efficient removal of ballast and debris. The CRIBBER’s chain guarding protects against damage to the rails and ties while in use.

The introduction of the BTE CRIBBER now allows railways to utilize a single operator and a BTE Hi-Rail Excavator outfitted with a bucket, CRIBBER, Dump Cart and Tamping Attachment to completely remediate FRA fouled ballast defects.

Geopier, A Division of CMC
Booth #4227 (REMSA)

The Geopier GeoSpike® system is a cost-effective method for strengthening weak railroad track subgrades. This system is installed without removing railroad tracks, ties, or ballast. GeoSpike elements are driven to design depths, then aggregate is backfilled within the pre-manufactured shell. Railroads use the GeoSpike system to stabilize subgrades and decrease track deflections.

• Rapid installation without the need to remove track, ties or ballast
• Reduces need to re-move, rebuild and replace track sections
• Limited service disruptions/loss of revenue

Power Drives, Inc.
Booth #2941 (RSI)

The patented PowerHouse™ idle reduction technology from Power Drives, inc. is now available in a Hybrid version.

The Hybrid model eliminates the need for an additional engine as a power source by powering itself directly from the locomotive battery bank. The Hybrid runs off the locomotive batteries for up to 7 days without starting the engine, and when plugged into an external 120 VAC power source, it also charges the locomotive batteries. Idling locomotives use between 5-8 gallons of fuel per hour while the PowerHouse™ uses .38 gallons/hour. Fuel savings provide an investment payback in as few as 3 months.
