  • Level Crossing Accident at Penrhyn, Ffestiniog Railway, 6 January 2019 Important Safety Messages
    Level crossing accident at Penrhyn, Ffestiniog Railway, 6 January 2019 Important safety messages • This accident serves as a reminder of why it is important to follow railway rules and operating instructions. Many rules have developed from the experience of past accidents and incidents. The reason why a rule exists is not always obvious, and may have been forgotten as time passes, but the importance of complying with it does not diminish. • The consequences of a train running onto a level crossing into the path of a road vehicle can be fatal; ensuring trains stop at a ‘Stop’ board placed at a safe distance from a level crossing open to road traffic is a sensible and realistic precaution against inadvertent overruns. • It is also important that organisations have measures in place to assure themselves that rules and instructions are being followed, rather than allowing unsafe ‘custom and practice’ to develop. Summary of the accident On Sunday 6 January 2019 at around 16:30 hrs, an engineering train returning from Tan y Bwlch to Minffordd did not stop as it approached the level crossing at Penrhyn. The gates were closed across the railway, and the train struck the upper gate and pushed through it, coming to a stand part way across the crossing, fouling both carriageways of the road, the A4085. There were no injuries, and minor damage was caused to the crossing gates on the Tan y Bwlch side of the crossing. On applying the locomotive brakes with the intention of stopping short of the gate, the driver realised that the locomotive wheels had locked and that the train was continuing to move down the 1 in 80 gradient.

  • Operational Rail Vehicle Strategy 2019-2034 Operational Rail Vehicle Strategy 2019-2034
    OPERATIONAL RAIL VEHICLE STRATEGY 2019-2034 OPERATIONAL RAIL VEHICLE STRATEGY 2019-2034 INTRODUCTION The Science Museum Group (SMG) through the National Railway Museum (NRM) owns the largest fleet of operating historic locomotives in the United Kingdom, so it’s essential that we have a strategy to ensure the most effective and efficient use of these vehicles. The NRM, Locomotion and Science & Industry Museum in Manchester (SIM) will continue to operate a select number of rail vehicles from our collection. Showing our collections in action is one of the most direct tools we have to share our key values with visitors: revealing wonder, igniting curiosity and sharing authentic stories. What’s more, our visitors expect a train ride. We need to meet that expectation whilst managing our collection in the most professional and responsible manner. A commercially viable and deliverable plan will see a core selection of operating vehicles at York and Locomotion within the maintenance capabilities of teams at those locations. These have been chosen for reasons of accessibility, affordability, income potential, attractiveness to visitors, practicality of operation and sustainable repair as well as the railway stories they reveal. We use our rail vehicles in various ways with priority always given for static display for our visitors at York and Shildon. Other ways in which we use them are: operation on museum sites; static loans to accredited museums; operating loans to heritage railways; main line operation. Our loans reach diverse audiences across the UK, making the national collection accessible to many. These vehicles are brand ambassadors for our mission of inspiring future engineers and scientists.

  • Types of Rolling Stock
    CLASSIFICATION & NOMENCLATURE OF COACHING STOCK ROLLING STOCK Rolling stock comprises all the vehicles that move on a railway. It usually includes both powered and unpowered vehicles, for example locomotives, railroad cars, coaches and wagons. However, in some countries (like UK), the term is usually used to refer only to non-powered vehicles; specifically excluding locomotives which may be referred to as running stock, traction or motive power. CLASSIFICATION OF ROLLING STOCK Rolling stock are classified into following two groups, according to the availability of power source to move on the track SELF-PROPELLED VEHICLE: These are railway vehicles that do not require a separate power source to move over the railway track. For example- Locomotives, Rail Cars, Electrical multiple Units (EMUs), Diesel Multiple units (DMUs) Diesel Breakdown Cranes, Motor trolleys etc. NON SELF-PROPELLED VEHICLE: These are railway vehicles that need a separate power source like locomotives to move over the railway track. For example- Coaching Stock and Freight Stock FUNCTION OF ROLLING STOCK ❖ Locomotives: These are source of power used to haul a train, a coach or a wagon etc. ❖ Coaching stock: Coaching stocks are used for transporting passengers. ❖ Freight Stock: Freight Stocks (Wagon) are used mainly for transporting goods and live stocks etc. ❖ Diesel/ Steam Break down Crane: These are rail mobile cranes used in case of railway accident for lifting loads, derailed wagon or coaches. Diesel/ Steam Break down Crane are part of accident relief trains which are used for rescue & restoration operation. ❖ Motor trolleys: These are used for inspection of railway track by staff of engineering department.

  • Railway Locomotive and Rollingstock Drawings
    Railway locomotive and rollingstock drawings Research Guide to Railway locomotive and rollingstock drawings records at Queensland State Archives Research Guide to Railway Locomotive and Rollingstock Drawings Records This research guide provides an overview of the drawings produced by or for the Chief Mechanical Engineer’s Branch (or Locomotive Branch) of the Railway Department. The drawings are available on microfilm at Queensland State Archives (QSA). These railway drawings trace the development of Queensland railway locomotive and rollingstock from 1864. Most of the drawings consist of general arrangement and working drawings for the construction of rollingstock. The QSA references for these records are in the Queensland State Archives’ catalogue. Note: QSA does not hold all drawings proposed for or adopted by Queensland Rail (QR). Queensland Rail Heritage Collection The Queensland Rail Heritage Collection consists of 72 series of records transferred to Queensland State Archives from the Workshops Rail Museum, Ipswich, in 2019. The QRHS spans the years 1864 to 2007. All the records are open. These holdings give us a glimpse into Queensland’s past with railway brass bands, railway refreshment rooms and clock repair registers. There are many treasures in the plans, drawings, photographs and audio-visual material. A search of our catalogue using the keywords - Queensland Rail Heritage Collection - will find all the series of records including hyperlinks to descriptions. Interested researchers are welcome to visit Queensland State Archives to request and view the records. Each series has a Queensland Rail/Queensland Museum catalogue number. A list in numerical order by catalogue numbers is in the Research Guide to railway records at Queensland State Archives.

This is an open access article distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited. Abstract. The article presents result of computational modelling of container dynamic load during transportation as a part of trains of intermodal transport on a railway ferry. The computational models were developed which account the movement of the container with regard to the frame of the flat wagon while moving of the railway ferry. It was assumed that there is no movement of the flat wagon with regard to the deck, since these movements were limited by fastening means. The obtained acceleration rates, as components of the dynamic loads acting on the container, were accounted while determining the containers stability coefficient with regard to the flat wagons. The railway ferry heeling angles which ensure the stability of the containers were determined. The researches will ensure safety of transportation of containers as a part of trains of intermodal transport on a railway ferry, as well as increase the efficiency of operation of intermodal transport in the international transport.
