7 Increased payload per meter Regular container transport 80ft class Sggnss wagons (VEL or Tatravagónka) 19th Nordic Seminar on Railway Technology, September 2016, Luleå, Sweden 7
8 Increased payload per meter Problem: increased usage of 45ft containers C4R proposal: 90ft class Sgrss EXTENDED 8
9 Long articulated vehicles Advantages - Increased payload per meter - Less inter-wagon couplers Disadvantages - Maintenance depots - When one of the wagons has a problem, five are retired - Total length of the train limited by the bigger steps between wagons Less couplers Expensive centre couplers Electrification EP brakes & Advanced condition monitoring 9
10 Cost analysis Cost to manufacture and maintain Total operating cost, including capital costs and track access charges 12-axle 6-axle 4% less 10
11 Vehicle design Main objectives: - Carry SWOP bodies and 20, 40 and 45 containers - Shortest possible length - Lightweight 11

17 Conclusions and further work - 12-axle 5-wagon is more efficient than 6-axle 2-wagon - Pocket-wagons for trailers - Less flexible for maintenance purposes. - Critical speed slightly increases with the number of coupled vehicles - Still lower than a single vehicle, due to first-bogie load - Y/Q values larger for the 12-axle vehicle, but still much lower than the safety values - Longitudinal dynamics don t change substantially - Calculate wear of the wheelsets 17
