Abstract

North American railroads are experiencing an increased number of axle failures. The greatest increase has been observed in unit train coal wagons that are operated with 32400 kg axle loads. This level of loading has recently been permitted in service and represents a 10 per cent increase in the formerly permitted level. Failure statistics and the resulting increase in stress are discussed and several solutions are presented.
