Underframe Washer at Tyseley Light Maintenance Depot - Hyder Consulting Case Study
Before maintenance work is carried out on a train, its underframe needs thorough washing - because it is so caked with filth picked up from the tracks on which it has run many hundreds of miles. In the UK Railway Industry, underframe washing is usually carried out in a shed with a pit that is as long as the train. A mechanized trolley runs up and down the length of the pit, spray-washing the underframe of the train with water/chemicals/detergents.
