Aldon CS-4 Severe Duty Type Car Stops

Uses the cushioning capacity of the tie and a wheel-bump feature to lift the wheel slightly off the rail to absorb momentum. Recommended for spur tracks where more protection is needed than a conventional car stop can provide.

  • For exposed rail track.
  • Car Stops and Bumping Posts are for use on flat track only at a slow speed (1-3 mph).
  • Car Stops are not equal in stopping capacity to a Bumping Post.
    • Limit use of car stops to lightly travelled side tracks,where one to two cars maximum are being moved.
  • Provide ample space between car stops and object to be protected.
  • Use a signalman to guide locomotive engineer as cars approach stop or post.
    • Repeated impacts will weaken stops and posts.
