Due to their restricted vertical clearance, most flatcars and double stack waggons cannot stack more than two standard 40-foot containers on top of one another, even though they can typically support the weight of two. It is inefficient to carry half the weight that is achievable.
A double-stack car, however, can accommodate a container and yet provide enough clearance for another container to be placed on top if the rail line has been constructed with appropriate vertical clearance.
The operation of double-stacked waggons on lines with overhead electric wiring is typically prohibited by this. Some of the countries have triple-stack trains with overhead wiring, but they forbid stacking containers higher than three containers high.
As a result of the cost savings to shippers, it now makes up approximately 70% of intermodal freight transport shipments, in part because of the generous vertical clearances employed by railroads. There is no overhead wiring on these diesel-powered lines.
The Global Triple-stack rail wagon market accounted for $XX Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
Launch of an electric triple-stack container operation by Alstom. The trains are 7.1m tall and have high-reach pantographs with contact wire heights of 7.87m and 8.65m and a tension of 10kN, the required level for DFC electrification.
The amount of freight that each train can transport is up to 20,000 tonnes. The service is a component of the larger Western Dedicated Freight Corridor project, which consists of 1483 km of electrified triple-track with a gauge of 1676 mm.
Currently, numerous contracts have been used to commission around 70% of the wiring along the route. ETCS Level 1 will also be available on the line. The project attempts to improve the effectiveness of rail freight.
