Railway applications - Re-railing and recovery requirements for railway vehicles
EN 16404 is applicable to all railway vehicles that will operate under the Interoperability Directives taking into consideration the recommendations given in Annex E on the application of the standard (migration rule). Rolling stock of the following types are excluded from the scope of this European Standard: - metros, tramways, and other light rail vehicles; - vehicles for the operation of local, urban or suburban passenger services on networks that are functionally separate from the rest of the railway system; - vehicles exclusively used on privately owned railway infrastructure that exist solely for use by the owner for its own freight operations; - vehicles reserved for a strictly local, historical or touristic use. On track machines are in the scope of this European Standard only when in transport (running) configuration on their own rail wheels, either self-propelled or hauled. However, the requirements may be appropriate for other applications that have similar operational conditions. It specifies the principles and processes to be followed to achieve satisfactory arrangements for re-railing or recovery of railway vehicles and to validate the design against the relevant performance and safety requirements. The interface between the re-railing and recovery equipment and vehicle structure is considered as the interface between the jack contact faces or the lifting bracket contact areas. The structural requirements for the vehicle structures are set out in EN 12663-1 and EN 12663-2.

EN 16404:2014 (E) 5 Introduction Rail vehicles are designed so that re-railing and recovery operations after a derailment or accident can be safely undertaken without exposing persons to undue risk during lifting and jacking operations. For rolling stock of interoperable trains there is a need to define common requirements in terms of lifting and jacking operations, equipment space envelopes and lifting accessories. Foreseeable factors that can influence a re-railing or recovery operation include: — final vehicle position relative to the track; — weight transfer due to final vehicle orientation (inclination or roll); — vehicle load, possible overloading or uneven loading; — load movement or shifting; — embedding in ground; — sinking of jacks (soft ground); — structural distortion/damage; — jerking or snatching of lifting equipment. The majority of these factors cannot be quantified either in advance or during a recovery operation and therefore precise requirements cannot be set out in this European Standard and accordingly design scenarios are used. The resulting requirements together with competent persons undertaking the re-railing or recovery operation using the documentation specified are considered to be sufficient to ensure that the overall objectives are satisfied. SIST EN 16404:2014
EN 16404:2014 (E) 6 1 Scope This European Standard is applicable to all railway vehicles that will operate under the Interoperability Directives taking into consideration the recommendations given in Annex E on the application of the standard (migration rule). Rolling stock of the following types are excluded from the scope of this European Standard: — metros, tramways, and other light rail vehicles; — vehicles for the operation of local, urban or suburban passenger services on networks that are functionally separate from the rest of the railway system; — vehicles exclusively used on privately owned railway infrastructure that exist solely for use by the owner for its own freight operations; — vehicles reserved for a strictly local, historical or touristic use. On track machines are in the scope of this European Standard only when in transport (running) configuration on their own rail wheels, either self-propelled or hauled. However, the requirements may be appropriate for other applications that have similar operational conditions. It specifies the principles and processes to be followed to achieve satisfactory arrangements for re-railing or recovery of railway vehicles and to validate the design against the relevant performance and safety requirements. The interface between the re-railing and recovery equipment and vehicle structure is considered as the interface between the jack contact faces or the lifting bracket contact areas. The structural requirements for the vehicle structures are set out in EN 12663-1 and EN 12663-2.

EN 16404:2014 (E) 9 4 Requirements for the re-railing and recovery of rail vehicles 4.1 General requirements for all vehicles It shall be possible to safely lift or jack a vehicle for re-railing or recovery purposes (following a derailment or some other accident or incident) using designated lifting/jacking points. Requirements for the provision or type of lifting/jacking points for maintenance purposes are outside the scope of this European Standard though the same locations can be used for both purposes, subject to the respective design criteria being satisfied. 4.2 Required lifting and jacking operations 4.2.1 Lifting and jacking operations for all rail vehicles Rail vehicles shall be designed for: — lifting either end of a rail vehicle with the other end supported by the vehicle suspension, or in the case of articulated vehicles, depending on the system of articulation used, possibly supported by an adjacent vehicle; — lifting of the complete vehicle.
Figure 1 — Conventional vehicles: single end and full vehicle lifting It shall be possible to lift a rail vehicle for re-railing or recovery purposes with the running gear secured to the car body (see 5.5). For re-railing or recovery, it shall be possible to raise or lower a vehicle end or a complete vehicle using only jacking equipment (and lifting brackets if these are required). NOTE For re-railing and recovery operations, lifting/jacking is undertaken by designated personnel who are trained and qualified by knowledge and practical experience to enable the re-railing and recovery operations to be carried out in accordance with the re-railing and recovery instructions for the vehicle (see Clause 8). 4.2.2 Lifting and jacking operations for articulated vehicles and/or fixed formations For articulated vehicles and/or fixed formations it shall be possible to simultaneously lift the end or ends of adjacent vehicles in order to achieve the objectives set out above for lifting vehicles (see Figure 2 and Figure 3). Any restrictions or particular requirements shall be included in the recovery documentation (see Clause 8).

EN 16404:2014 (E) 10 Figure 2 — Articulated vehicles with shared running gear: single end and full vehicle lifting For articulated vehicles with three point support it is permissible for lifting loads to be transferred to an adjacent vehicle through the articulation joint, for example as indicated in Figure 3.
Figure 3 — Articulated vehicles with three point support: single end and full vehicle lifting 4.2.3 Provision of lifting/jacking points Lifting/jacking points for re-railing and recovery shall be provided by — the provision of dedicated lifting/jacking points for re-railing and recovery, and/or — the use of lifting/jacking points which are also intended for maintenance purposes, and/or — removable lifting brackets with compatible attachment points or lifting pockets. In all cases conformity with the requirements of this European Standard shall be demonstrated. Permanent, built-in lifting/jacking points shall be provided on the rail vehicle except where it can be demonstrated that due to, for example, the vehicle bodyside profile and/or gauging restrictions the required access cannot be achieved without compromising other aspects of the vehicle design (see 5.1.3). For heavy vehicles, for example locomotives or fully loaded freight vehicles, the vehicle should be lifted using the running gear supporting the car body instead of lifting the vehicle with the running gear suspended from the car body structure to avoid structural collapse or damage. If permanent built-in lifting/jacking points for re-railing and recovery are not provided for some or all vehicle lifting positions, attachment points or lifting pockets shall be provided to allow removable lifting brackets to be fitted in accordance with the requirements of 5.4 and 6.4. 4.2.4 Requirements for marking and documentation Each lifting/jacking point shall be marked in accordance with the requirements of Clause 7 to clearly identify the intended function or functions of the lifting/jacking point. 4.3 Vehicle masses for lifting and jacking The minimum vehicle mass, denoted MV, shall be the design mass in working order as defined by EN 15663, less the mass of any staff. SIST EN 16404:2014
EN 16404:2014 (E) 11 The maximum vehicle mass, denoted MC, to be used to determine the loads used in the design of lifting/jacking points, shall be the design mass under normal payload for the vehicle as defined by EN 15663, less the mass of any passengers and staff. NOTE 1 For passenger vehicles, as defined in EN 15663, luggage mass is included. It is assumed that for a recovery operation while the passengers and train crew will have been evacuated, all other items remain on the vehicle. NOTE 2
For freight vehicles, as set out in EN 15663, the maximum vehicle mass is the vehicle mass in working order plus the maximum payload specified for the vehicle. For freight vehicles, staff and/or passenger masses are zero. 5 Design requirements for lifting and jacking points 5.1 Positioning of Lifting/Jacking Points 5.1.1 General requirements for lifting/jacking points All lifting/jacking points placed along the vehicle car body sides or at the ends of the vehicle shall be arranged with a matching lifting/jacking point on the opposite side of the vehicle, i.e. arranged in pairs. There shall be a minimum of four lifting/jacking points on the vehicle car body, arranged as two pairs, with at least one pair located at each vehicle end. It is recommended that in the vicinity of each set of running gear two pairs of lifting/jacking points are provided. Lifting/jacking points provided for a full vehicle lift shall also be suitable for single end lifting. Pairs of lifting/jacking points shall be separated laterally by at least 860 mm. For articulated vehicles at positions where the running gear is shared, recovery lifting/jacking points shall be arranged to allow adjacent vehicle ends to be lifted simultaneously. For freight wagons constructed in accordance with Annex C of the Freight Wagons TSI, there shall be at least one re-railing position at each vehicle end, i.e. a pair of lifting/jacking points that comply with the requirements of 5.1.4. For other freight wagons and other types of vehicle, there shall be at least one pair of lifting/jacking points at each vehicle end where running gear is attached which shall permit the use of re-railing beams (see 5.1.4). At these points the height of the lifting/jacking points shall lie within the range specified in 5.1.4. Elsewhere the heights of additional lifting/jacking points shall be part of the vehicle specification. 5.1.2 Longitudinal location of lifting/jacking points Lifting/jacking points for re-railing and recovery shall be located longitudinally according to Figure 4: — inboard or outboard of the running gear (zones 1 and 4 as shown in Figure 4), or — in a restricted zone, subject to satisfying the requirements of 5.1.3 and 5.1.4, at a position which is greater than or equal to 360 mm longitudinally from the centreline of a designated re-railing beam space envelope (zone 2 as shown in Figure 4). SIST EN 16404:2014
EN 16404:2014 (E) 12 NOTE 1 In the restricted zone, to satisfy the requirements of 5.1.3 and 5.1.4, it may be necessary to use lifting brackets. It is also possible to achieve the requirements of 5.1.3 and 5.1.4 in the restricted zone where compact running gear is used (e.g. inside frame bogies). NOTE 2 For lifting points in the restricted zone alongside the bogies, at the minimum dimension specified (360 mm longitudinally from the centreline of the bogie), it is possible to jack the vehicle and position a re-railing beam to support the bogie in a single operation (see Annex A for details of assumed space envelope dimensions for re-railing beams and jacks), taking account of possible rotation and displacement of the bogie. It is recommended that lifting/jacking points are not located within areas designed for controlled structural collapse and therefore vehicle designs incorporating structural crashworthiness can prevent the placing of jacking/lifting points in end zones that are intended to collapse under crash conditions. For On Track Machines within the scope of this European Standard, lifting points should be provided where possible at a distance of 1 400 mm from the middle of the individual running gear.

Figure 4 — Lifting/jacking point positions relative to running gear 5.1.3 Lifting equipment clearance zones Clearance shall be provided underneath and around each lifting/jacking point to allow for the installation of lifting equipment and accessories. SIST EN 16404:2014
EN 16404:2014 (E) 13 Where it is not reasonably practicable to achieve the clearances required with fixed lifting/jacking points on the vehicle structure, due to for example the vehicle bodyside profile and/or gauging restrictions, removable lifting brackets shall be used to achieve the clearances required. In the vicinity of lifting points for use with jacks a cylindrical space envelope of 360 mm diameter for each jack shall be assumed. A minimum radial design clearance of 180 mm shall therefore be provided between any part of the vehicle, its running gear and a vertical axis through the centre of the jack contact surface, assuming the vehicle is upright and level. This clearance shall be maintained from the jack contact surface down to rail level. In the vicinity of lifting points f
