Easy access to components and a spacious cab with room for up to three people are features of the lengthened frame and longer wheelbase of the KBR 875 Ballast Regulator. Ballast profiling and track sweeping are performed using a powerful 240-horsepower engine. The cab-controlled, one-pass transfer plow transfers ballast from either side of the track in a single pass. The pivoting-blade plow design allows ballast to be plowed in or out in either direction of travel. Cab-controlled hydraulically adjustable ballast wings are 36 inches wide, and carry ballast in either direction or transfers ballast from the shoulder to the rail. The broom attachment features a hydraulically raised/lowered deflector assembly for sweeping through switches. A fiberglass engine shroud is sound insulating and has large hinged doors for easy engine access. A 30 mph four-speed transmission is standard, with a shift-on-the-go six-speed transmission available as an option.
