PHOTOGRAPHIC RECORDING OF STRUCTURE GAUGE FOR OUT-OF-GAUGE LOADS

Checking for infringement of structure-gauge by out-of-gauge transports on Netherlands Railways using a track-mounted pointer and trace-board has given place to a camera recording technique whereby lineside structures are photographed and annotated with a grid carrying both the load and the structure profiles. Great speed of information collection and evaluation is thus achieved with consequent cut in track occupation time.
