Each ramp must be portable and towable by forklift, include attachment mechanisms for securing to flatcars, and incorporate transition plates to bridge irregularities between the ballast base and ramp surface. The ramps must also feature removable rub-rails and handrails to accommodate wider vehicles while maintaining safety standards. Proposals for this solicitation are due September 2, 2025, with an original posting date of August 26, 2025.
