Machine Description

The KNG800C is a versatile ballast regulator with international appeal. It can be converted from standard 1435mm gauge to one of 3 narrow gauges (914mm, 1000mm, 1066mm). This is a great feature for railroads and contractors that need to provide maintenance for railroads with different track gauges in the same rail system. The regulator is equipped with a one pass type plow, reversible side wings, and a broom attachment. In contrast to the KBR925C, the KBR800C is a lighter, shorter wheelbase machine with a front-mount engine.

The KBR925C is a convertible-gauge ballast regulator that can be adjusted from narrow to wide gauges to meet specific customer requirements with ease. It features a one-pass plow, reversible side wings, and a broom attachment. Like the standard KBR925, the KBR925C offers outstanding visibility and operator comfort, thanks to its rear-mounted engine and tilt cab with strategically placed windows. The regulator is equipped with various snow plows, snow wings, and snow- switch cleaner for wintery conditions. The machine assembly includes all necessary parts for converting from a 1435mm gauge to a broad gauge.

14’ wheelbase frame, 260hp Cummins tier III engine, Danfoss hydraulic valves, hydrostatic pump for propel and vane pumps for broom and control functions, Funk 4 speed manual transmission or 6 speed power shift transmission, 28” wheels with clasp style brakes with fail safe brake chambers, mount on truck style axles and a turntable.
