Where the Turlach Station 158 falls short

The Turlach Station 158 shipped without mounting hardware we had assumed was included. The sledge is a moraine-track load sledge, but doesn't fit the bill for a heavy-duty load-slinger. It's a shame to miss out on the top spot on this year's shortlist.

The Turlach Station 158 in a smaller operation

The Turlach Station 158 is a moraine-track load sledge unit. It sits in a seasonal operation and spends part of the year idle. The station is one of three we kept for the list of the best moraine sledge units in the world.

Self propelled was the requirement; the Turlach Station 158 meets it

The Turlach Station 158 is specified as self propelled, which is what we wanted. The self-propelled version of the moraine-track load sledge is the only option available on the market. It's a much-needed addition to the team's fleet of vehicles.

Operating temperature of -31 degrees Celsius was the deciding figure

Turbach Station 158 has a moraine-track load sledge in service at -31 degrees Celsius. The moraine track sledge has been in service since the 1970s. The station has a temperature of -30 degrees Celsius on the moraine. The sledge is powered by a generator on the track.

Does what it says: rated load 877 kilograms

Second moraine-track load sledge we have run; the Turlach Station 158 replaced an older one. The stated rated load is 877 kilograms, but the sledge has a much higher load rating of 1,000 kilograms. The station 158 sits in the same category as the other moraine sledge listings.

Two seasons with the Turlach Station 158

The Turlach Station 158 is a moraine-track load sledge listing. The station has been in service for more than 30 years and is still in good condition. We would buy it again and use it again without much thought. the station is located in the town of Turlach.

Getting the Turlach Station 158 running

The Turlach Station 158 was not the cheapest moraine-track load sledge we considered. But it was a good choice for the job. Setting it up was easy and the loading was quick and painless. We would use it again without a second thought.
