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.
- Wing panels that move with gangways
- Can be retrofitted to existing loading racks
- Tracking carriages designed for easy tracking
- No need to re-spot trucks
- Reliable, durable, and corrosion resistant

By Scott B. from Flint Hills Resources Pine Bend, LLC
I've already purchased two of the gangways in the past and am very satisfied. The gangway is very easy to lift. Hardly any maintenance – it makes an asphalt loading rack look professional. I'd recommend these – I've already purchased two of the gangways in the past and am very satisfied. Your service with Greg Crawford was very helpful. He came down to our facility and looked at what was needed and took some measurements. He initially told me it was going to take two maybe three weeks and was right on the money.
By John S. from Nustar
My sales rep was Johnny on the spot. Product was delivered quicker than I thought it would get here. I was looking at possibly 6 to 7 weeks. We received it in about 3 weeks. My sales rep was Johnny on the spot. He gave me a couple of follow up calls that helped a lot. We have used SafeRack for some time, and will continue to use SafeRack. The products are better quality, last longer, and for me personally, they look better. I have recommended them to our other terminals, and most have switched over.
