ORGANIZATION OF TECHNICAL INSPECTION AND THROUGH REPAIR OF RAILWAY CARS AT CLASSIFICATION YARDS

ORGANIZATSIIA TEKHNICHESKOGO OSMOTRA I BEZOTTSEPOCHNOGO REMONTA VAGONOV NA CORTIROVOCHNYKH STANTSIIAKH

As the operational experience of leading classification yards has revealed, technical inspection of groups of cars in receiving yards is an effective means of accelerating their processing. With the introduction of multigroup inspection it is necessary in each case to establish independently of the number of reprocessed compositions the optimal number of groups of technical inspectors and the optimal time for placing railway cars in the yard. It would be expedient to organize, at stations not having dispatching yards, "throughput" repair on a specialized classification track, or on tracks for equipment maintenance. The concentration of repair in a single place allows the wider application of various means of mechanization and repair machinery.
