Abstract: A rail vehicle has a vehicle frame, supported on track undercarriages, and a vehicle superstructure with at least one driver's cabin. A motive drive is provided and has an electric motor supplied by an electric energy store. In this, it is provided that the energy store has a tempering by use of a liquid dielectric, and that the vehicle superstructure includes a compartment, separated from the driver's cabin, in which the electric energy store is arranged within at least one fire protection cabinet with a dielectric tank located there above.

Abstract: An on-track work or rescue vehicle for fire-fighting and/or the rescue of persons in tunnels or subway tubes has a drive which can be operated for at least a limited duration without ambient air. A liquid tank is arranged on the work or rescue vehicle. A fan blower with a fluid spraying device is connected to the liquid tank for producing a spray mist. The work or rescue vehicle is a traction vehicle for pulling or pushing other rail vehicles. A work or rescue vehicle of this type can move to a fire source under the protection of the spray mist blown into the tunnel or subway tube and, if required, pull or push a damaged rail vehicle from a danger zone.

Abstract: A rail vehicle having a vehicle frame supported on on-track undercarriages and a hydraulic drive system powered by a motor. The drive system comprises a hydrodynamic drive associated with a first on-track undercarriage as well as a hydrostatic drive associated with a second on-track undercarriage. With the latter is associated a drive pump connected to a drive motor. The motor is designed for a higher power output than is necessary for the operation of the hydrodynamic drive. A pump distribution gear is switched between the motor and the hydrodynamic drive, via which the drive pump of the hydrostatic drive can be connected. This takes place in dependence on a friction value ? between the rail and wheel.

Abstract: A longitudinal beam of a track maintenance vehicle is connected at a beam exterior side—facing away from the opposite longitudinal beam—to a rail transport device provided for receiving rails. The rail transport device is displaceable by means of a displacement drive in the transverse direction of the machine relative to a machine frame within a displacement path s delimited by a transport—and a loading position.
