Disclosed herein is a railcar-moving vehicle having a highway mode for operation on roadways, and a rail mode for operation on rails. The railcar-moving vehicle including a support system, at least one drive axle with rubber tried drive wheels, and at least one pair of steering tires and two spaced apart rail bogies suspended by the support system. The railcar-moving vehicle including a weighted sled frame slidably mounted to the support system, the sled frame translatable between the front end and the rear end of the support system for optimizing weight distribution for increasing traction by the bogies when in rail mode. The bogies retained in an elevated and stowed position during highway mode and in a lowered position when in rail mode.

In one or more arrangements, a system is presented for transportation of a railcar. The system also includes a trailer having a flatbed configured to move between a tilted position and a horizontal position. The flatbed has a track assembly that when the flatbed is tilted and the track assembly is aligned with a set of rail tracks, a railcar may be loaded by rolling the railcar from the rail tracks onto the track assembly of the flatbed. The system also includes an alignment device operably connected to the flatbed and configured to automatically align the track assembly of the flatbed with the set of rail tracks as the flatbed is tilted downward towards the track.

In one or more arrangements, a system is presented for transportation and/or storage of a railcar. The system includes a trailer having a flatbed configured to move between a tilted position and a horizontal position. The flatbed has a track assembly that when the flatbed is tilted and the track assembly is aligned with a set of rail tracks, a railcar may be loaded by rolling the railcar from the AAR approved rail tracks onto the track assembly of the flatbed. The system also includes an alignment device operably connected to the flatbed and configured to automatically align the track assembly of the flatbed with the set of rail tracks as the flatbed is tilted downward towards the track. In one or more arrangements, the system is configured to optionally use field deployable stands for storage of a car thereon.
