What is a Hirail? A hirail (also known as hi-rail) refers to a vehicle or equipment that is modified to operate both on conventional roads and railway tracks. The term "hi-rail" is derived from the words "highway" and "rail." Hi-rail vehicles typically have retractable flanged wheels that can be lowered to ride on railroad tracks or raised to drive on regular roads. These vehicles are commonly used in railway maintenance, inspection, and repair work, allowing workers to travel conveniently between different locations along the tracks. Hi-rail vehicles offer flexibility and efficiency in performing various tasks related to railways while still maintaining road mobility.
