Road-rail vehicles

Road-rail vehicles are shunting locomotives that can switch between moving on rails and moving on road. This comes in handy when on the company premises there are various tracks and no connections between those tracks. Or when the connection is far from the location and transportation is faster by road.

Characteristics Shunting locomotives

Shunting

  • Continuously variable speed control from ‘0’.
  • Very smooth start off with particularly favourable slip limit because of absence of peak forces.

Operation

  • Standard Bemo-locomotive operation, specifically designed for use under heavy circumstances.
  • Trembling and temperature resistant.
  • Manually and/or radio remote controlled, if required with explosion proof encapsulation.
  • Accelerating and braking in accordance with pre-adjusted curves as a result of which:
    – Always very steady behaviour (reaction) of the rail shunter.
    – Incorrect control is virtually impossible.
    – Consequently any operator can work with the rail shunter.

Environment and Health and Safety regulations

  • Limited noise level.
  • Very little fuel consumption.
  • Clean diesel engines.
  • Electrically or hybrid driven.
  • Ergonomic accessibility for operation and service.

Safety

  • Emergency buttons on all corners of the machine, especially in combination with radio remote control.
  • Integration of gas detection in control system, with application in Ex zones (optional).
  • Security with additional approach / reflection switches (optional).
  • Excellent view from the cabin.

Control

  • All shunting activities can be carried out by one operator.
  • Simply controllable operation system.
  • Conveniently arranged graphical display for service status and maintenance (GUI).

Mechanics

  • High-quality components are standard, e.g. A-class engines.
  • Overall spring axle suspension with fully closed reductors, resulting in:
    – Reduction of damage to switches.
    – Reduction of derailment risk.
  • Long technical life.
  • Short delivery times for components.

Maintenance

  • No special lubrication pit necessary.
  • Daily maintenance can be carried out by the company’s own technical service.
  • Intervals are adjusted as optimally as possible, dependent on the application.

Shunting couplers

Besides the standard UIC wagon-screw couplers, numerous automatic shunting couplers can be applied, among which AAR buckle-head couplers.

Pneumatic installation

Virtually all shunting locomotives are provided with a pneumatic installation for (wagon) brake systems, also to control the various components. Compressor output, tank capacity and version are chosen on the basis of the locomotive’s utilization.

Track gauge

Worldwide various track gauges are applied. Besides the track gauge of 1435 mm generally applied in Europe there are also broad and narrow gauge tracks in various sizes. The shunting locomotives can be supplied in every track gauge.
