Abstract

An important part of the safe operation of rail transport is a quality of railway rolling stock and abidance the rules and standards applicable in rail transport. Just lawbreaking as well as neglect of the technical condition are frequent reasons for accidents, low security and subsequent non-compliance with the timetable graphics. For this reason it is necessary to ensure that only high-quality rail wagons with well-loaded loads can enter the transport load. These conditions can be provided in two ways: • Smart wagon, independent of the owner reporting its technical condition, • Check points as part of a transport road, that will be monitored the technical condition and all necessary parameters independently of the freight wagon carrier. In the first case, this is a conscious approach by the owners of railway wagons, and in the second case it is a form of restriction by the owner side and the rail transport controller too.
