I don't suppose anybody could tell me of any industry specific TSI's or BSI's that apply to seating on passenger rolling stock. Im getting a bit lost searching through them all!! Any help is appreciated!!

Ahh yes i see them, Thanks Am i right in assuming that the seats on the SWT 455 are aluminium backs with foam seating?

hi, I see on the first image there is no draft shield by the doors. I was thinking of doing this on my concept but didn't think it would be accepted. Obviously its viable... is it effective?

im looking a driving a mechanism i have desinged for moving seats. it will probably use a rack and pinion drive so i felt hydraulic was the most viable

When i want advice on the complicated issue of buying a ticket.... I'll Come to you!

Well Delt1c Thanks for that constructive response! Seeing as normally designing a new train takes a team of 100 people 2-3 years to complete i hope you can forgive me for not knowing how every single component works! I am designing a new seating system and trying to incorporate it with...

Hi, So as can be seen on my Previous thread I am trying to develop a new more efficient seating system for trains in peak hours. I have developed a mechanical concept which could be driven by a hydraulic system. I however have a pretty minimal knowledge of hydraulics, especially on trains...

Hi rob, I recieved your PM i cannot send you one back though because it says "you have chosen not to receive private messages". My email is duggie_1001@hotmail.com it would be awesome if you could send me the info. How are you finding the project so far...My research is taking forever :) Many...

So two more questions i have, Is there a maximum number or weight of passengers allowed in any carraige at one time? Also what are the regulations with regard to seat back heights? i have read they must be higher than an average male, but have also seen some designs in trains with folding...

Does anybody know anywhere that i can get in to see a carriage being re-fitted or being assembled? i really need to see the seats going in to help me understand my new system. Thanks.

The help and guidance you've given is second to none!! It's really helpful with formulating my research!! I am planning on doing a simple mechanical system. It would not involve motors! It is going to be designed for speed and optimum use without failure. Once i have formulated my design...

Thanks again for everyones respones they are very helpful, i welcome more if anyone has any!! I am currently in the process of researching all the strict safety and crash regualtions. I'm looking at the relevant BSi's TSI's and RSSB regualtions, sifting through all the information is just...

Thanks for such a prompt response, I am only in the early development stages of my design so have no fixed ideas as of yet. Thanks for the suggested problems they are very useful. In my proposed design i am only going to be applying it to one carriage. As you would have a "first class...

Hi, My name is Ryan Dugmore, I am currently in fourth year of university studying computer aided product design. For my final year project I have decided to design a new style of train carriage. The “commuter carriage” in off peak times will be a regular carriage, then in peak business...
