Hassle-free
Designed to be operated and maintained with a minimum of staff and skill, so the business stays profitable.
The original Rail Glider
Built for the people who run the railroad.
The only public-friendly, commercially available railbike designed after working with railbike operators. Made to keep a tour business simple, safe, and profitable.
For operators and founders — not guests booking a ride.
01 / Why Rail Gliders
A railbike that protects the season — and the payroll.
These bikes were specified by people who already run railbike operations. The point is not novelty. It is a machine your staff can keep on the rails all day.
High build quality
Industrial construction means a long life of reliable, very low-maintenance operations. No mid-trip breakdowns in the busy season.
Light weight
A total weight of about 500 pounds — substantial enough for commercial use, light enough to stay easy on crews and track.
Reversible seats
The Rail Glider never needs to be lifted to change direction. Reverse the seats and flip the switches to pedal the other way.
Steel rim tires
Steel rim tires on steel rails mean low friction and easy rolling. The bikes glide, and 6.5" pedal cranks make pedaling easy.
Made in the USA
Manufactured in Pennsylvania. Customer service based in Pennsylvania.
Tours go out as a group. Everyone turns around at the same time — still without lifting a bike.
02 / Direction change
Never lift a bike to turn it around.
Bikes go out in groups, and everyone turns around at the same time. Seats reverse in place. No turntable, no hoist, no crew of four. That is the difference between a public-friendly commercial bike and a machine that eats labor at every turnaround.
03 / On the rails
Industrial frame. Family-friendly ride.
Patent-pending design, infinitely adjustable seats, brakes anyone can activate, and a flexible frame that keeps all four wheels on uneven track. Built in Pennsylvania for operators who cannot afford mid-season downtime.
