Abstract

189,555. Bonner, J. C. Sept. 2, 1921. Railway platforms and stations. - Relates to railway freight terminals where goods are transferred to or from rail preferably in wheeled vehicles referred to as " road-wagons " which are of broader gauge than and are adapted for convevance on railway trucks. As shown, road vehicles, or " road wagons " containing goods for several destinations, enter the freight terminal at 3 and pass over a bridge 4 to the space within an annular turntable 1 and platform 2. The bridge may be replaced by an elevator, or a clear space may be kept on the turntable. The goods are unloaded on to the platform 2 at points corresponding to the different destinations, and are transferred to " road-wagons " on the turntable, 1. The loaded " road-wagons " are hauled over the road-bed, by a dinky-engine running on the connecting tracks, to storage tracks 7 where the loaded " road wagons " are transferred to rail-trucks which enter and leave the terminal at 12. Similar storage tracks 9 serve for loaded " road-wagons " arriving on rail trucks, and these " road-wagons " are taken to the turntable 1 for unloading and sorting different consignments of freight for despatch by road. Road vehicles of wider gauge than the tracks may be used in place of the " road-wagons," the freight itself being transferred to the rail vehicles on the storage tracks. In a modification, the turntable 1 is provided with a single circular track, for rail-trucks or " road-wagons," and a second annular turntable for road vehicles or " roadwagons " may be arranged within the platform 2. In another form of the invention, the turntable 1 is replaced by a stationary annular platform divided by partitions into stalls for "roadwagons " which are hauled to and from the storage tracks by a dinky-engine.
