THIS IS PLASSER & THEURER VKR 05E TAMPER NO. 74108 ‘STORED’ AT WITTERSHAM ROAD ON THE KENT AND EAST SUSSEX RAILWAY


This machine is an early 1960’s Plasser & Theurer VKR 05-E tamper DX74108. Apparently the tamping tines should vibrate with the ideal frequency of exactly 35 Hz. This directional, linear vibration combined with the non-synchronous tine movement produces a homogeneously compacted ballast

I don’t know much more about the machine . Sorry


Anyone else ?
