Type B Personnel Carrier (Air Brakes)

The Permaquip Personnel Carrier is designed as a vehicle-towed/propelled, load-bearing rolling platform for on-track use. It is also capable of accommodating up to six seated personnel.

The Personnel Carrier is a configuration of the Type B Towing Trailer. It is divided into sections to improve handling and transportation to and from the site, and to allow for the use of different inserts based on track certification.

Each Personnel Carrier is equipped with either a fail-safe hydraulic braking system or a fail-safe air braking system when used with a suitable Permaquip road-rail vehicle. The hydraulic or air hose is permanently attached to the Personnel Carrier and includes a quick-release coupling for easy connection to the towing/propelling vehicle or the next trailer in the train.
