NMC Railway Systems, in partnership Supertrak – distributor of Huddig and a division of Marden Industries – is now the dealer in the United States and Canada for the Huddig Rail complete system for rail maintenance.

 

The Huddig Rail machine is a backhoe loader system that provides rail operations the ability to utilize several products with one system. NMC Railway Systems says it can easily track up and down rail lines with its innovative hi-rail gear, which also allows the machine to move on and off the track lines at any location.

“The addition of the Huddig Rail machine to the NMC Railway Systems product line compliments our commitment to providing the rail industry with innovative and efficient railroad maintenance-of-way equipment,” said Mark Anderson, sales manager for NMC Railway Systems. “As a cross between a compact wheel loader and small excavator, we’re excited about the power the Huddig unit provides to run all specialized rail tools.”

Huddig’s specialized articulating center pivot system, along with a power output of 157hp, allows the machine to operate multiple attachments for various maintenance-of-way projects, including: tie replacement, ballast regulation, material handling, vegetation management, snow management and utility work. It also features an auxiliary tool valve and hose reel to run hydraulic handheld tools and the option to add on a man lift and/or a remote control.

An enhanced cab on the Huddig unit provides operators bi-directional functionality and added comfort and safety features. Ergonomically-designed joysticks, an adjustable console for increased visibility and climate control allow operators to utilize the machine in an easy to navigate environment, the company notes.

“Supertrak is proud to partner with NMC Railway Systems to offer the Huddig products throughout the United States and Canada,” said Dave Evans, national product manager for Supertrak. “This partnership will provide additional sales and service support for our growing customer expectations.”

NMC Railway Systems will manage site support, maintenance and parts for the Huddig product and will provide rail maintenance operations the ability to purchase, rent or lease the equipment.
