Lightweight Rerailing

The Railroads approached Pennsy about making a Lightweight Rerailer. Prior to Pennsy, rerailers weighed from 124 to 180lbs each. OSHA & NIOSH has set the safe lifting limit at 50lbs per person which means these last generation rerailers require 3 to 4 people to lift them safely. Even without the established safety lifting limits rerailers need to be carried to derail locations and for 2 men they are difficult to carry and maneuver. Pennsy designed a light weight Inside & Outside rerailer set. Weighing less than 100lbs each, these rerailers safely fall under OSHA's & NIOSH's 2 person lift criteria.
