Custom Yard Power Packages

Custom Products built to for the Passenger Railroad Industry by Northwest Rail Electric

Custom packages we have produced include:

A single fairly standard yard power unit in terms of the enclosure size, but with a separate feed system for receptacles on the left or right side of the enclosure.

This is another variation of a dual-feed system. A remote enclosure (the smaller of the two enclosures seen in the photograph) will be mounted at the end of a second passenger car storage track. This will allow one yard power unit (the larger enclosure) to feed both tracks.

A Dual 800 Amp Yard Power Package with power feed on both sides. Basically, two yard power units in one enclosure:

The interior of the unit:

A Portable Yard Power Unit with Transformers and Steel Rack so that it could be moved around to several different locations where the cars may be stored. We also shipped the unit with a fairly long extension cord for both the HEP power supply line and the control loop wires.:

A Yard Power Unit with Attached Transformer for 600 volt 3 phase to 480 volt three phase conversion and an auxiliary 120 and 208 volt power receptacle was produced for a customer in Canada.:
