Access Systems for Train Maintenance

Platform Sales & Hire Limited have developed a generic range of high quality access systems for train maintenance, which can be modified to suit particular train sets and the requirements of the individual train care centre. A range of these systems is illustrated below and is being enlarged as we are requested to provide solutions to specific new access problems.

Carriage Roof Access

We can provide a wide variety of carriage roof access systems. The most popular of these has been the folding roof guardrail system, which provides a safe enclosed area on the carriage roof.

Carriage Side Access

Most carriage side access platforms will be of a simple castor mounted aluminium construction. However this simplicity masks the wide variety of options and choices available.

Windscreen Access

A wide range of activities take place in both the manufacture and the maintenance of a train set on or around the windscreen area. These can range from replacement of a full windscreen panel to wipers and headlight maintenance.
