Innovative Ballast Car Design for Optimal Track Load Distribution
WMATA solicited bids for custom AAR-rated Maintenance of Way (MoW) rolling stock, specifically six custom ballast cars designed to be as light as possible while hauling maximum payloads without overloading the tracks. Our unique frame design distributes the load over a wider area compared to standard freight rail ballast cars.
