- A glimpse of the varied rail operations within the ThyssenKrupp steelworks in Duisburg including the famous 'Torpedo' wagons carrying molten steel.
Can’t beat a bit of heavy industry. Wonderful stuff. Up yours, Greta!!
I've still got a cough after my visit there! :-)
Great operation many ideas here.. Thank you!
Amazing footage, thanks for sharing
every day i have to wait countless minutes at this level crossing
Some nice trains to watch while you wait though. ;-)
Sehr gutes Video, tolle Cameraführung ;-) Danke
Sehr Interessant 👍
I really got excited watching this video! Steelworks are awesome stuff😃😃😃
The site is massive - it really is impressive.
strictly speaking: bottle (torpedo) cars do not transport molten steel but pig (raw) iron from the blast furnaces to the basic oxygen plant which converts iron to steel. Steel is then sent to the continuous caster (within the same or adjacent building).
Thank you Harald - that does make sense now you come to mention it.
Sehr interessantes Video - bin alter EH-ler und kenne noch die sog. 'Fantaloks' mit dem EH-Emblem
That ungated crossing where the road zigzags across the track seems to be just asking for accidents to happen, particularly with propelling moves of some lengthy trains. (And there didn't seem to be a shunter hanging on the end of those empty hoppers at 14:56.) . I suppose it's all internal traffic so drivers are briefed on safety protocols and so on, I suppose.
Which country are you from? There are still many unrestricted railway crossings in Germany, even in the middle of the city. or you have to call the person in charge at the level crossing so that they can open the barriers briefly
There are around 50 deaths at such level crossings in Germany every year, which isn't that much, I think
The Deutsch T-Bottles appear to be the equivalent capacity of two of the larger U. S. Treadwell bottles--reargding iron volume capacity. I'd hate to have to re-rail one of the large German bottles, if it was a load. ThyssenKrupp appears to operate safe and efficient in-plant switching operations.
they are about a 400/450 metric tonne capacity if i recall correctly. here in belgium we use 220 tonne bottle cars atm. making the transition to 500 tonne ones in a year or so
tolle Aufnahmen und Sounds, die einfach dazugehören ! the Devil on Railroad !
Danke! :-)
Hot stuffing indeed
That's some puff of smoke the engineer let out @ 9:29 !
I never noticed that before! :-)
Might go trainspotting there this winter, how many times per day do you see those torpedos?
At the time of my visit, they were roughly hourly. Thanks for watching.
great video. Can you post the google earth location coordinates for this location?
51°29'56.57"N 6°43'53.04"E
Beinahe noch interessanter als die Züge sind so manche Straßenfahrzeuge. Weiß jemand, was die blauen Tankwagen transportieren?
Tolles Video, Daumen hoch!!!
