This document is applicable to all rail vehicles including OTMs and Road-rail machines, which are operated on the heavy rail network with standard track gauge 1 435 mm and nominal static vertical wheelset forces up to 350 kN.
This document may also be applicable (partly or in full) to:
— rail systems with different track layout, e.g. urban rail systems and/or;
— rail systems with other than 1 435 mm nominal track gauge and/or;
— non-public rail networks and vehicles, e.g. mine rail systems.
NOTE For rail systems other than 1 435 mm track gauge or urban rail systems, the related post analysis, limit values and test conditions could be different. They are specified nationally or individually taking into account track design and operating conditions.
This document defines the assessment of rail vehicles according to stationary test methods that are not obligatory on European level:
— determination of displacement characteristics;
— loading of the diverging branch of a switch;
— running safety in curved crossings for vehicles with small wheels.
It includes information about the field of possible applications.
