The first rail car in the Rail-Veyor® system has a set of four cast hardened steel wheels. The rest of the cars have two. This allows for a more articulatedAn articulated vehicle is a vehicle which has a permanent or semi-permanent pivoting joint in its construction, allowing the vehicle to turn more sharply. movement and flexibility along the curves of the rail.
Axels
The Rail-Veyor system uses stub axels where each wheel operates independently.
Safety Cable
Safety is further enhanced with 36,000 kg tensile strength safety cable that is attached to each car. The cable prevents the cars from separating in the event of a clevis failure.

Rail-Veyor® an Environmentally Friendly Alternative

- Low Energy Use -electrical variable frequency drives that only run when required
- Small environmental footprint as a result of light rail, ability to stack, simple crossings
- Future power regeneration potential exists in downhill applications
- Automated system where drive stations only operate when required
- Low carbon footprint with no diesel
