Train Washing Equipment Solution

Before Wash-Bots, train yards had to rely on expensive and time-consuming cleaning services that often fell short of expectations. Our train wash equipment revolutionizes the cleaning process by making it fast, efficient, and cost-effective.

We take pride in supplying reliable, long-lasting equipment backed by a lifetime warranty that covers the stainless steel frame of your train wash machine. At Wash-Bots, we aim to be your go-to source for train cleaning solutions, helping to keep your railcars clean, safe, and well-maintained for the best possible transport experience.

The Perfect Solution for Your Customers

Maintaining the appearance of your railcars is crucial in the public transportation or freight delivery industry, as it significantly impacts how your company is perceived. A clean, well-kept fleet can lead to increased sales, while neglecting this aspect can result in losses. For fleet owners, incorporating regular cleaning into your maintenance schedule is essential to ensure your trains always look their best on the tracks. An in-house cleaning system will keep your trains in pristine condition, even during long routes. Wash-Bots provides the ideal train wash equipment solution to give your fleet an impeccable finish every time.

Wash-Bots utilizes Bitimec’s advanced machinery to deliver a thorough and safe cleaning for all large surfaces of your train exteriors. As the exclusive Canadian distributor of Bitimec’s cutting-edge train wash systems, Wash-Bots offers cost-effective solutions that eliminate the need for manual labor or expensive, fully-automated washing facilities. These traditional methods require significant space, infrastructure, and substantial financial investment, not to mention the potential for costly repairs in case of breakdowns. Our portable cleaning systems, however, come directly to your trains at a fraction of the cost and require only one operator. These self-contained units do away with the need for third-party contractors.

Wash-Bots can clean an entire train in just a few hours, ensuring that your transport services remain uninterrupted. Our SEP 1000 machines consistently remove dust and maintain a high-quality finish on your railcars. Regardless of your location in Canada, our portable train wash machines can be easily delivered and installed at your facility.

Hand-scrubbing a railcar can take over an hour and require immense effort. Wash-Bots can wash and rinse all four sides of your vehicles in just five minutes. The feather-touch steering allows for easy maneuvering over all surfaces, and the machine is entirely self-contained, with no external hoses, cords, or cables to hinder your operations. The 'brush only' inclination system extends to reach every difficult-to-access area, while the machine base remains securely grounded.

When you invest in one of our machines, we guarantee you’ll notice the remarkable difference a Wash-Bots clean makes on your fleet.
