Fall Protection for Transportation, Trucking & Rail Industry

Employ Critical Safety Measures

In order to secure the goods, workers frequently need to board railcars or flatbed trailers, or they may need to take off tarps and other securing materials before offloading.

In the case of a slip or other accident, they run the risk of suffering major injuries or perhaps passing away without sufficient fall protection.

For instance, for trains on routes electrified with overhead lines, the pantograph, or “pan” on the locomotive roof is held up with compressed air pressure.

The apparatus requires periodic preventative maintenance, some of which can only be done on the locomotive roof. For this situation, if the worker can access the roof near the pan and does not need access to the rest of the roof, an inexpensive single-point anchor with a self-retracting lifeline (SRL) might be the only fall arrest system needed.
