10 July 2017 | 

Dura Vermeer Railinfra, in cooperation with voestalpine Railpro, has successfully installed a track termination construction - also known as a buffer stop - on the track at Schiedam.

Automatic coupler buffer for passenger trains

Dura Vermeer Railinfra, in cooperation with voestalpine Railpro, has successfully installed a track termination construction - also known as a buffer stop - at the Sportlaan in Schiedam.  Our buffer stops can absorb an impact of more than 1000 kN, without damaging the train or the buffer stop itself. We are talking about the Fixstop OK, which will replace all other Fixstops in the Netherlands. The Fixstop OK, in contrast to the first Fixstop model, contains a centre coupling buffer that is specifically designed for the connection of passenger trains.

William van den Hout - operator at Dura Vermeer Railinfra - was present during the installation of the Fixstop OK and responded to the service of voestalpine Railpro. "The installation went well and was performed quickly. It was a complete process and the work was carried out as expected. "

The Fixstop OK makes a lasting impression.
