Description
Side-Dump Wagon has a capacity of 50 tons and designed in a modular philosophy and sharing the main components of its underframe load carrying structure with the Flat Wagon and Tank Wagon.
​
The load body module sits on the underframe’s open steel-to-steel hinges and can be tilted in both directions by the on-board hydraulic actuators. Tilting the load body module opens its door and allows unload clay or phosphate.

Safety & Durability
No Tipping Risk:
The side dump wagon has an inherently stable design with a low center of gravity and controlled kinematics. It cannot tip over during unloading thanks to chassis locks and actuator control, ensuring safe operation even on uneven tracks or at low train speeds.
​
​
​​
Engineered for Extreme Conditions:
​Adapted for high temperatures and harsh environments, the wagon uses high-strength, corrosion-resistant materials and proven Nordic design principles. It performs reliably in Egypt’s desert climate or mining zones without deformation or performance loss.
​
​​
Minimal Maintenance – 30 Years+ Lifespan:
​Built for decades of heavy-duty use, the wagon requires only routine maintenance and no major overhauls. Its robust, simple design minimizes failure points and operating costs, offering one of the lowest lifecycle costs per transported ton globally.
​
​​
Heavy-Duty Bogie:
The wagon runs on Amsted Rail’s Motion Control bogies fitted with Brenco roller bearings rated at over 2.5 million km, and Griffin cast multi-wear wheels rated at over 1.5 million km. Together, these deliver world-class durability, stability, and safety—drastically reducing maintenance and extending service life.
