The most serious problem track damage, and increased potential for derailment. The eco­ with these types of assumptions is that they neither make any nomic and safety impact of the increased wheel rail loads can only distinction for the effects of suspension design used in differ­ be ascertained by a total characterization of the wheel/rail loads. In this paper, a comprehensive set of experimental results obtained ent types of freight cars nor describe the variety of track from on-track testing of conventional North American freight cars conditions found in revenue service. Ideally, for design of using both wayside and on-board measurement systems are pre­ track and fretgh:t car structures, a total description of the load sented.

  • Wiggins Island Rail Project Balloon Loop
    Wiggins Island Rail Project Balloon Loop The Wiggins Island Rail Project (WIRP) is the staged development of new rail lines and upgrading of existing lines to service the new Wiggins Island Coal Export Terminal (WICET) at the Port of Gladstone. About the Project WIRP Stage One includes constructing a new 13km Balloon Loop Fast Facts Balloon Loop from the North Coast Line near Yarwun to enable unloading of coal for the new port facility. Construction of 13km rail loop Works at the Balloon Loop project site include earthworks and drainage, track infrastructure, Location: Near Yarwun, Gladstone overhead electrical equipment, power systems, signals and telecommunications. Approximate project value: $200 million Once operational, coal trains will travel from mines Construction start: Mid 2012 in the southern Bowen Basin along Aurizon’s rail network to the Balloon Loop where it will be unloaded onto Est. construction completion: End 2013 WICET’s conveyor and carried to the port for export. Up to five trains can be held on the Balloon Loop Workers at peak construction: Approximately 180 at one time - three on the arrival side waiting to be unloaded, one at the unloader unloading coal, and one on the departure side heading back to the mines. Environment Beaks Creek Diversion Aurizon aims to continuously improve our Beaks Creek flows from the southern slope of Mount environmental performance. Martin in the Calliope Conservation Park, prior to meeting the Calliope River about one kilometre A comprehensive Environmental Management Plan upstream of the Calliope River rail bridges. will be implemented on site.

EDITORIAL Judging from the large numbers of letters from members, issue number 70 seems to have been well received, and I am most grateful to all those of you who took the trouble to write, particularly those who either sent or offered articles and photographs. We are gradually building up a stock of articles, but as mentioned before, the provision of suitable illustrations for these articles is still something of a problem and I will be most pleased to hear from anyone who can offer any good, sharp, black and white pictures of any aspect of the narrow gauge. It is a great pleasure to be able to include in this issue an article from one of our Australian members while two other illustrations in this issue have come from contributors in America and East Germany. I very much hope this will be the start of a trend and I will be receiving many more contributions from those of you living overseas who have access to much material denied to us in Britain. · From the next issue I hope to use this page to comment on various aspects of the narrow gauge scene (but NOT internal Society affairs) and will always be pleased to receive your views for possible inclusion in our correspondence pages.
