Electric Shunter Vehicles

Zero-emission operation for environmentally sensitive sites and enclosed maintenance depots needing to reposition rolling stock without the need for full locomotives

Freightquip supplies Electric Rail Shunting Vehicles manufactured by Zephir, offering zero-emission operation for environmentally sensitive sites and enclosed maintenance depots. Designed for precision and operator safety, these electric shunters combine direct rubber traction power with low-noise, low-vibration performance.

Technical Overview:

Zephir’s LOK-E Series  and CRAB Series (bi-modal) are fully electric, battery-powered shunters with regenerative braking and are able to be optioned as all-wheel electric traction units. Charging infrastructure can be integrated with depot systems, and units are available with remote control for improved safety in workshops. Battery autonomy supports full-shift operation depending on load profile.
