Loading a Coal train

Loading a coal train

[@wahyusafaat5665]

Train loading station where coal loading is regulated from CCR TLS. Using a hydraulic engine/HPU has a component above the surge bin & weight bin which can be adjusted how many tons will come out like having two side chambers, a gate that functions to open so that coal is in surge the bin goes down to the wight bin otamatis / manual will be closed according to several tons of requests from the CCR, when the gate is closed the chute will open throwing coal in the designated train area, hydraulics and PLC are one of the components, thank you

Cool, I randomly woke up this morning and was like, "how TF do they load Coal trains?"... Conveyor Belts, crane arms pfff KZbin's got it 👌

[@mickryan2450]

Seen it all in the hunter loading unloading at newcastle

[@DuramaxL5P]

That's why I love KZbin. You can learn about almost anything you are curious about on here. I call it KZbin University

cool perspective on loading the coal, great video!!!

cheers for viewing

WOW!!!!! THAT'S AMAZING!!!! Nice video 👌

When you're using electric locos (as opposed to 4000/4100 or PN's 83 class), how do you get the locos through the loading bin? I'd like to see something on this, as short of getting work in that area of the mines, it's not something I'm likely to get to see otherwise.

[@ducati3241]

china should watch and learn this!!! Period!

[@hooliganarfza15]

It’s a nice look at the loading, but can you show the electric locomotive passing through the loader bin, I really would love to see what happens with the pantographs as it passes through.

[@lozarok]

they lower down as they sense the Loadout zone

[@hooliganarfza15]

If you could ever get another Chance to show this procedure that would be awesome, so they sense you said ? In what way the drivers actually have to view when to lower, if the first locomotive goes through and it lowers, would it loose power? … it was done very different in NSW, at Clarence Colliery and Glenlee.

[@Higherbusa]

​@@hooliganarfza15There's magnets attached to sleepers before and after the loadout. When in low speed control (hump mode) the loco passes over one pair of magnets which opens the MCB (main circuit breaker) then lowers the pantograph. Then when the loco passes over the second pair of magnets on the other side of the loadout, the pantograph raises and the MCB closes. If hump mode isn't activated, the pantograph remains up, the circuit breaker remains closed, and... boom!

[@hooliganarfza15]

Very well explained, see that truly makes sense.

[@Higherbusa]

@@hooliganarfza15 the driver has a monitor screen that gives pantograph and MCB status. The loadout operator will often confirm with the driver the pantograph is down. The driver can control the remote locomotives independently from the lead loco.

I'd like to see how the bin is constantly full? .

Wow..so good work

do you have coal smooth device

[@lozarok]

the chute profiles the coal - cheers n

[@iliadfastness5646]

That's just remarkable. The countless cars filled with uniformly sized pure, black coal. That dust must be hell on the surrounding area. It makes you wonder if the coal will ever run out. 🌴🦖🌞⛰🗻⛏🚂💡❓

An enviro-friendly agent is sprayed on the product before it leaves site that forms a hard crust on top to suppress any dust - cheers

Which mine was that train loading from?

Ensham

[@Jindgi202]

Woww

[@littlewingpsc27]

Those cars look like they are being overfilled. There is no room for the excess mounds in the center to settle into as the train moves down the tracks.

[@Ultrapro011]

but it is overfilled only at the center and it should probably settle to the sides

[@kymmiree]

There's no need for it to settle. It gets filled to max at around 54 tonnes per bogie and fits everywhere on the system under the overhead wires. If there is a big mound on top of that mound you're talking about, then there are problems.

[@MrBundyrumandcoke]

It doesnt settle at all. 300+km later, on arrival at Callemondah and Gladstone port, its still holding the same shape. The coal is veneered, but thats for dust suppression.

[@MrBundyrumandcoke]

Ensham.

Its Ensham mine, North east of Emerald in Central Qld. Loaded there many times.

[@ItzSeanTrainandVids]

NSW dosen't have electric locos

[@tobys_transport_videos]

Blackwater system, Central Queensland. No electric traction in NSW outside of commuter trains.

[@ItzSeanTrainandVids]

When you know its CQ when there 3800s pulling 100+ wagon coal train and when his out on the CH Coal fields you would think his at blackwater
