Track Mounted Gangways
Track-mounted gangways that can be moved horizontally so workers can safely access truck and railcar hatches without repositioning the vehicle.
SafeRack’s truck and railcar track mounted gangways are trusted worldwide for providing secure, efficient access during loading and unloading operations.
Track Mounted Gangways
The #1 Selling Gangway in North America
As a global leader in loading platform design and manufacturing, SafeRack delivers gangway systems that combine advanced safety features with unmatched ergonomic performance.

Track-mounted gangways are designed to address the variability in port and compartment spacing on railcars, trucks, and vessels. These gangways slide horizontally, allowing operators to access multiple hatches or vehicles efficiently from a single platform. They feature folding stairs with safety cages, which can be positioned along a fixed track, and support multiple workers simultaneously.

What Customers Are Saying
Significantly more robust than the competition's. Travis usually go back to me within a day if he didn't answer his phone immediately. I like the stamped steps as opposed to welded steps. The gangway latch is significantly more robust than the competition's. The pivot points on the gangway have bushings, this is where we've seen the majority of our issues.
