Prototype information
For example, on hump tracks despite all required safety precautions it often happens that loads slip or shift. At larger switching yards there are such correction track bumpers to reposition these loads. After the repositioning the load is fixed again in place, and it can then be safely transported.
Warning
ATTENTION: not for children under 15 years
