The Super Power Pusher™ has the push/pull capacity necessary to overcome extremely heavy or high rolling resistance loads, delivering the ability to maneuver enormous railcars. Featuring a low-maintenance design and a heavy-duty construction for extreme durability, Super Power Pusher is capable of mobilizing loads reaching up to 250,000 pounds. Plus, with its wide range of custom, modular attachments, this device is as flexible as the loads it transports.





Power Pusher’s Rail Mover™ industrial electric tugs enable a single person to safely move 45 to 225 tons reducing the challenge of moving massive railcars. These flexible movers perform on and off the rails for increased dexterity and efficiency allowing for easy maintenance of railcars. Remote control operation is available as infrared or radio controlled for easy maneuvering. Powered hitch connects and disconnects to rail cars via remote control for easy contact and performance. Work with design engineers to customize the rail mover to your company’s unique needs.
