Production Tver Carriage Works (TVZ) has presented a production prototype of a modern baggage and mail car. Unique64–4505 car is a representative innovation of a new rolling stock type for TVZ. In terms of its specifications, it is superior to available market counterparts. Unlike its competitors, the new car has large capacity — 26.8 tons, which is 4.8 tons more compared to those in operation. Use of new baggage and mail cars will help carriers cut costs. They have a compartment with a service department for operating staff and a cargo compartment. Their service life is 40 years. This new development is fitted with a unique integrated monitoring system. It may control up to 10 baggage cars forming part of a train at once. In case of unauthorized access to any car, an alarm will be sent to the operating staff’s compartment. Car’s design enables operation of a loader with cargo with a total weight of 5 tons in the cargo compartment. This helps eliminate manual labor and decrease handling time. Special focus is made on work conditions for a service team. The compart - ment and service department meet the most up-to-date job engineering requirements. There is a cooking area with a stove, refrigerator and microwave. Car’s design speed is 160 km/h. “Over a few last years, the enterprise has created new products and mastered new markets, — Director General of TVZ JSC Andrey Solovey said during the presentation.
