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
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.
