Abstract

A shuttle system comprises swop-bodies having integral, or 'add-on', load bearing wheels; terminal platforms with angularly displaced bays for the swop-bodies on opposing sides of a single railway track; and rail wagons having underframes surmounted by shallow turntable body carrying frames rotatable to align with the angularly displaced bays of the terminal platform during simultaneous discharging and loading of the arrival bodies and departure bodies respectively. Swop-bodies may be road semi-trailers simultaneously reversed on/pushed off rail wagons by terminal tractors, and may be lowered into wells in the wagons to comply with rail loading height gauge restrictions. Turntable frames on the wagons may be omitted and complete wagons with bodies superimposed individually turned on rail track turntables alignable with the angularly displaced bays. Wagon couplings disengage and re-engage automatically during the respective anti-clockwise and clockwise turntable motions.
