The need for safe and efficient undercar wheelset change-out systems was a challenge that Handling Specialty readily satisfied for the maintenance facilities of Amtrak’s northeast corridor project. The split rail system consists of integral support pedestal/split rail assemblies; interlocks to the “blue flag” safety system; undercar lift/eject carriage; and wheelset dollies. Once the wheelset is stationed, the carriage elevates the train for blocking, lowers the wheelset, and rotates 90º to eject the load onto a wheelset dolly. The carriage comes with AC/DC power supplies, ergonomic work platforms, 3-axial motion of the support yoke and remote operator pendant. The top yoke can be interchanged to employ custom tooling for removing large undercar assemblies.
