Railcars and Tramways
Höegh Autoliners transports locomotives, railcars and tramways on board its vessels. Our modern 72-foot and 80-foot rolltrailers are equipped with rails, specially designed for stable and safe transportation of railcars. This mode of transportation is cost-efficient and ensures efficient and safe load and discharge operations. To eliminate the risk of damage to cargo during transport, we have developed our own bridges that make the transfer from truck to rolltrailer very smooth. The bridges eliminate the need for crane lifting in both load and discharge port as the railcars can be directly rolled on and off the rolltrailer, which is equipped with rail tracks. This makes the operation safer and less costly than with crane lifts. For rail units longer than 27 metres, we use our Extended rolltrailer concept which involves placing two railed rolltrailers in front of eachother and connecting them with the Höegh bridge.

Höegh Bridge
With the use of the Höegh bridge, we can easily transfer the railcars from the truck trailer they were transported on to the railed roll trailer. This process eliminates the need for crane lifting in both the load and discharge ports, making the operation safer and less costly than with crane lifts.
For single trams up to 60 m, two or more railed roll trailers are placed in front of each other and connected with a Höegh bridge. Transfer from road truck to extended roll trailer is performed in the vessel’s cargo hold.
