CASE STUDY 3: Tor Consumption (Wayside Simulation At Test Site)

Written By Ben White

  • Wayside application simulated at test centre

  • 60 m (semi-closed system) test site

  • 17 measurements locations on each rail

  • Friction increase over 68 train passes (consumption or spread-out of product)

  • All sites saturated with product, smaller amount of product/more passes/longer site required to study carry-down
