Wheel Shover I, Derail Asst. for (Left Throw) Retractable Derails

Wheel shover works with Retractable Derail to deflect both wheels off the rail. The addition of a Shover is recommended for difficult track conditions such as: curved track, sloped track, or track where switching speeds are above normal.

Wheel shover is connected to the Retractable Derail so that when the derail slides onto its rail, the Shover slides against the other rail like a switch point. Derail and Shover retract together to permit clear passage of rolling stock.

Standard wheel shover is non-insulated. If you need insulation protection, contact us for special pricing. Wheel shover can be connected to existing Retractable Derail installations. Weight 250 lbs.
