As a full service provider of logistics, voestalpine Track Solutions Netherlands B.V. is operating modernized hoppers and flat bottom wagons for old and new ballast transport throughout Europe. voestalpine Track Solutions Netherlands B.V. owns the largest wagon fleet in Netherlands and offers these assets for short and long term rentals with or without supply of new ballast to interested parties. All wagons are RIV certified.

The Fccpps is a user-friendly chute wagon suitable for the supply of all types of coarse ballast material. It can unload ballast outside and within the track without damaging the rails. The chute is dressed with a rubber mat which reduces sounds for the maintenance workers and the surrounding area. With minimum workforce, because of a smooth handle that shuts effortlessly, the user can control the amount of ballast released in the track up to 28,2 tons. The maximum transport density over buffers is 2,93 ton per meter. On the operating platform, situated at approx. 2 meters of the chutes, two operators can simultaneously unload the ballast on both sides of the track. An operator manual is available, please contact René Harkema for more information.

voestalpine Track Solutions Netherlands B.V. has developed an innovative dust suppressing ballast train which effectively minimizes exposure of workers to hazardous ballast dust. The train is comprised of 36 wagons divided into nine sets of four. Each wagon is fitted with a hydraulic unloading and high-pressure water spraying system which suppresses dust particles with a water mist sprayed over the ballast as it leaves the wagon. Each set of four wagons has its own operating computer, lighting, remote control, water reservoir and power pack (diesel engine, electro-hydraulic motor and high pressure pump). Operation is performed by remote control which makes unloading simple and practically effortless. The operator does not have to step on and off the wagon at any time, reducing the danger of tripping or falling onto the adjacent track. The wagons unload the ballast, without damaging the rails via a shutter with less effort and more accuracy. The Railpro dust suppression system significantly improves the working conditions for rail track maintenance workers by eliminating the problems associated with inhaling ballast dust.

Fas wagons are recommend when ballast other bulk goods like sand need to be unloading in large amounts and quickly into adjacent track. The wagon has a tilting container with 31 m2 capacity and a maximum loading capacity of 54 ton. It has the ability to be unloaded approximately eight times faster than normal flat wagons. There is no need for a crane during unloading and it immediately clean afterwards. The required air pressure can be obtained from the train locomotive or a compressor.

This wagon is suitable for the transportation of sand, new and old ballast, or other bulk goods. It has a steel floor and fixed sides/panels, making it a very solid wagon. The headboards can be dropped down. Therefore it is possible to drive over the wagon with a crane. The Klmos wagon type 1 has a maximum loading capacity of 24 ton and type 2 25,4 ton.

The Kls wagon is almost the same wagon as the Klmos but has a wooden floor and the sides can also be dropped down.
