Articulated Hopper Car with Discharge Hatches Model 12-6877-02 for Efficient Cargo Transportation

6-axle articulated gondola car model 12-6877-02 with unloading hatches has no analogues in the CIS market and is designed for efficient carriage of cargoes of a wide range of density. The body volume is significantly increased and load capacity is increased in comparison with other models on the market. This was achieved due to the fact that the articulated gondola is equipped with the SAC-1 articulating articulation device, which unites two sections of the wagon and ensures unobstructed passage of curved sections of track, including small radii.

Extended service and overhaul intervals provide a significant reduction in the life cycle costs of the wagon. The formation of trains using this type of rolling stock will reduce the required fleet and increase the weight rate while maintaining the standard length of the train, improve transport efficiency and increase the capacity of the railway network by up to 40%.
