information
Transformers used in substations and power plants are extremely heavy and large cargo, and heavy-duty cars (Shiki) were made to transport them. There used to be various types, but the Shiki 800 type made it possible to replace other types of heavy-duty cars with a structure that allowed the replacement of the load-receiving beams and the width of the beam side frames. The maximum speed was 75km/h when unladen, 45km/h when loaded, and the maximum load was 160t (when using B2 beams). Three cars (cars 800, 801, and 810) were manufactured between 1973 and 1996. Shiki 801 was manufactured in 1974, and has been in regular use at Oyama Station since 1985. It has "hanging" B1 and B2 beams, and by using a C-type intermediate beam, which is a cargo part, it is also designed to handle "drop-in" cargo. In 2008, parts from the scrapped Shiki 810 car were combined to improve the air brakes and running gear. In 2022, the new group brand "NX" was introduced, and in 2023 the design of the company emblem was changed.
