For rescue operations, the draw gear of locomotives shall allow a 0,3 MN compressive load on the draw hook. 4.2 Interaction coupling/buffer To ensure that the train is able to negotiate curves at 150 m radius safely, the static characteristics of draw gears and buffers should be coordinated.

NOTE For other railway vehicles, the arrangement could be different. Draw gear assemblies shall be interchangeable. The interchangeability only applies to complete draw gear assemblies, not to single draw gear parts. SIST EN 15566:2009+A1:2010
