BTE-329

RAILROAD MODIFIED HI-RAIL EXCAVATOR

 

POWERFUL MACHINE

FOR UNDERCUTTING

The BTE-329 is a heavyweight Hi-Rail machine with substantial horsepower and lifting capacity. It can be rapidly deployed on rail and then crawl off-track for more versatility or to clear up for train traffic. The exclusive BTE four-wheel drive Hi-Rail system provides useful on-track mobility with power for continuous ditching and towing. The increased lifting capacity of the BTE-329 makes it a capable choice for handling heavy loads or lifting track materials.

 

This machine is equipped to run the production BTE Undercutter with Spoil Removal Wheel for fast main line or switch undercutting. It can help build track with the BTE Tie Dragon tie handler that picks, spreads, and places up to seven concrete ties at a time. The Wood Panel Lifter is the perfect tool for track replacement or new construction.

 

 

 

INCREASED LIFTING CAPACITY

With the power and reach, the BTE-329 is excellent for undercutting, mulching, ditching, digging, and lifting.
