The minimum railway curve radius is the shortest allowable design radius for the centerline of railway tracks under a particular set of conditions. It has an important bearing on construction costs and operating costs and, in combination with superelevation (difference in elevation of the two rails) in the case of train tracks , determines the ...
The earliest elevated railway was the London and Greenwich Railway on a brick viaduct of 878 arches, built between 1836 and 1838. The first 2.5 miles (4.0 km) of the London and Blackwall Railway (1840) was also built on a viaduct. During the 1840s there were other plans for elevated railways in London that never came to fruition. [1]
In July 2006, it outsourced manufacture of some locomotives to Parel Workshop, Central Railway, Mumbai. [3] DLW was renamed BLW in October 2020. [2] In March 2019, it developed the country's first bi-mode locomotive, the WDAP-5. BLW today produces primarily the electric locomotives WAP-7 & WAG-9. [4]
The JS was developed at the Dalian locomotive works [4] by combining the chassis of the China Railways JF with a new boiler. [3] [6] 1135 [5] locomotives were produced from 1957 [4] to 1965 [5] at Dalian, Qishuyan Locomotive and Rolling Stock Works, Datong locomotive works, and the Beijing 7th Feb works.
The term rolling stock in the rail transport industry refers to railway vehicles, including both powered and unpowered vehicles: for example, locomotives, freight and passenger cars (or coaches), and non-revenue cars. Passenger vehicles can be un-powered, or self-propelled, single or multiple units. [1] [2] [3] [4]
[1] [2] First 57 units produced till March 1996 (Indian Railway road number 14001–14057) had rounded front hood profile similar to contemporary newer classes of locos built by DLW (WDG-3A and WDP-1). After that there was a gap of long four years in the WDM-3A production line in BLW. These units have been retro-fitted with dual brakes, in ...
Eleven B class locomotives were sold to private railways during the 1930s, but all but one returned to SJ after the railway companies had been nationalized in the 1940s. One of the private operators, Stockholm–Västerås–Bergslagens Järnväg, had three more locomotives of the same type built, the last one in 1944.
