LOCATIONSNew Hi-Rail Dump Trucks
Railroad maintenance and construction demand specialized equipment engineered to perform on tracks and terrain. New rail dump trucks from Custom Truck One Source deliver the dual-mode capability railroad contractors need for efficient material transport along rights-of-way.
Why Choose Our Rail Dump Trucks?
Railroad projects require dump trucks that transition seamlessly between highway travel and on-track operation. Our new rail dump truck inventory features models purpose-built with rail gear systems that enable smooth track navigation from trusted manufacturers.
These specialized vehicles combine articulated dump truck engineering with hi-rail components, offering advantages such as:
- Rail gear systems: Engage track wheels for on-rail travel and retract them for standard road operation.
- Articulated steering: Provides maneuverability in tight spaces along rail corridors where fixed-frame trucks cannot operate.
- MultiTip capability: Offers 180-degree dump positioning for precise material placement along tracks or beside rail infrastructure.
- Dual-mode design: Allows work in both high-rail and low-rail configurations, adapting to different track systems.
What Can These Trucks Do?
Rail dump trucks are ideal for track construction, ballast distribution and maintenance operations. Track crews use these vehicles to transport crushed stone, gravel and other materials directly to work zones. The ability to dump at multiple angles speeds ballast placement.
Construction projects benefit from equipment that accesses remote rail sections. Rail dump trucks navigate grades and curves while carrying 10-ton payloads. Removable rail modules allow quick conversion back to standard operation when projects require off-track hauling.

How to Choose Your Rail Dump Truck
Evaluate your typical haul distances and material volumes when choosing rail dump trucks. Projects involving frequent short hauls benefit from compact models. Operations requiring longer transport distances need larger capacity units.
Consider the rail systems you’ll work on. Dump body style determines material handling. Traditional rear-dump bodies work for general applications, while MultiTip systems offer flexibility for trackside placement.
