Standardised UIC Drawings

The constructional characteristics of wagons and the components which can be used generally are set out in the UIC Leaflets and ERRI Technical Publications. Definitions of the different standardisation stages are set out in UIC Leaflet series 500 “Standardisation of transport stock and components”.

The wagons listed are designed so that they can receive the automatic coupler without further adaptation.
