Sand filling. Some may say it’s old-fashioned, others that it’s tried and tested. We would add that it’s indispensable. Even today, all kinds of trains everywhere carry sand. In critical situations, it is spread in front of the driven wheels to increase traction, for example for safer braking. Now that we have integrated Clyde Process within the Schenck Process Group, we can offer rail workshops complete solutions in this area with MULTIRAIL® SandPiper — as mobile or stationary systems.
