Designed for arrival and departure tracks, the Iron Python is used during unloading operations to locate cars and absorb the impact from cars that are not well spotted. In cases where a car approaches at too high of an impact speed, the Iron Python can derail the car. Developed to improve locomotive and railcar utilization, the Iron Python also reduces fuel consumption and railcar repair costs.

One of the safest ways to protect your tracks and people, the Iron Python safeguards sensitive areas like the main line, car shop and dumper by restraining the movement of a single car or an entire train.
