Quantify the Distribution of Unevenly Loaded Container Wagons (T1112)
Together with ‘Offset Loading of Container Wagons on Twisted Track’ (T1119), this research examined issues around derailments due to combinations of track geometry faults, offset loads and wagon sensitivity to track twists. Seven of the 17 derailments involved container wagons travelling over twisted track.
