Kalmar to deliver 60 terminal tractors to Rail Management Services in U.S.

Kalmar, a division of Cargotec, will deliver 60 Ottawa T2 off-highway terminal tractors to Rail Management Services in the U.S. The order has been booked into Cargotec’s 2015 third quarter order intake and the deliveries will run into early 2016.

"We chose Kalmar Ottawa terminal tractors because of their consistent reliability, availability of original parts as well as their competitive pricing," said Ed Morgenthaler, vice president of Rail Management Services. "The T2s galvanized chassis meets the tough load demands in our terminals and provide

more strength, better protection and less maintenance to the equipment."

Rail Management Services operates in 38 rail terminals throughout the USA. The company has purchased 160 Kalmar Ottawa units over the past three years, including this latest order of 60 terminal tractors.

Kalmar says it has sold over 2500 Kalmar Ottawa T2’s since their introduction to the market in 2014.
