- W633873179 abstract "The first low floor light rail vehicles in North America will enter service later this year in Portland. This paper will, discuss some of the technical issues related specifically to the low floor design and report on the progress of the test program and the first operational experiences. In June 1993, the Tri-County Metropolitan Transportation District of Oregon (Tri-Met) awarded a contract to Siemens Transportation Systems for a fleet of low floor LRVs. Vehicles are designed to meet ADA requirements and provide full access from low level platforms. A number of technical challenges due to the low floor concept had to be resolved during design: a center truck with single wheels on a stub axles; a bridgeplate to provide a gapless transition to the station platform; and equipment installation on the roof. The solutions that were selected emphasize reliability and maintainability. The first car is expected to arrive in Portland in spring 1996, where it will undergo rigorous testing to ensure compliance with specification requirements and safety standards. A test program has been developed to verify proper operation and functionality of all car systems, from acceleration and braking rates to ride quality. The test program will be described in detail and the first available results will be presented." @default.
