• 500 lb+ Load Capacity – Built to haul the combined weight of the heaviest track and field equipment — shot puts, discuses, hammers, hurdle sets, pole vault standards, and starting blocks — without frame flex or wheel strain, giving programs confidence that a full equipment load moves safely every time
• Fold-Down Gate Design – All four gates fold flat for easy loading and unloading of long or awkward equipment from any side of the wagon, eliminating the need to lift items up and over a fixed wall and making the loading process faster for single-operator use before and after practice
• Durable All-Weather Construction – Wagon frame and bed are built to withstand constant outdoor exposure, heavy impact from throwing implements, and the wear of daily high-volume use across a full competitive season without structural deterioration or surface breakdown
• Multi-Use Equipment Versatility – Equally suited for transporting hurdles, starting blocks, shot puts, discuses, javelins, crossbars, field markers, and timing equipment — a single wagon that replaces multiple specialized carts for programs running multi-event track and field operations

Meet day means hauling everything from cones and crossbars to timing gear across the infield — the Gill Track Wagon makes it a one-person job. Built to carry a wide variety of track equipment over any surface, this rugged wagon saves your staff dozens of trips and keeps your gear moving efficiently from the equipment room to the field.

Key features & specs:

• 500 lb capacity handles even the heaviest loads of track equipment
