Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: Network Rail New Measurement Train at King's Cross The Network Rail New Measurement Train (NMT) assesses the condition of track so that engineers can determine where to work. It is converted from High Speed Train, Class 43 power cars and Mark 3 coaches. It can check the condition of all main lines in Great Britain in a fortnight.
The train measures the contact between rails, wheels and the overhead electric supply line. Lasers and other instruments are used to make other measurements of the track geometry and other features such as overhead line height and stagger, and the track gauge, twist and cant. The train captures video footage from the front and rear power cars, and video of the pantograph and wheel interfaces. |
