Enterprising Trolley Move
Enterprise Rail a trading division of Enterprise plc placed the countries very first order for 20 Trakrat rail maintenance trolleys at this years Infrarail 08.
Trakrat features a unique disc brake system which manufacturers Wolfe Designs Limited claim is safer, more durable and easily maintained. A separate deck and wheel bogey arrangement greatly assists with manual handling and together with a range of interchangeable polymer, timber or aluminium decks allows the matching of units to individual job requirements.
Malcolm Burns of Enterprise Rail stated, 'it was an easy decision to start fleeting with the new trolley design". Enterprise's success is based on delivering superior performance and a competitive edge through innovation and technology. The efficiency gains alone of using the Trakrat system easily justifies our investment as well as the obvious safety benefits'.
