    • Revisions were needed due to changes in maintenance patterns and requirements.

    Optimum Wagon Performance

    • Preventive maintenance: Essential to avoid defects.
    • Defect resolution: Promptly address defects to keep wagons operational until the next scheduled maintenance.
    • Minimize detention: Keep examination and repair times to a minimum.
    • Identify recurring failures: Study frequent failures of similar nature to improve design and eliminate causes.

    Maintenance Schedules

    • Various procedures and schedules are prepared by Railway Board, RDSO, and IRCA.
    • Instructions are often issued piecemeal.
    • This manual consolidates instructions to ensure uniformity.
    • References for detailed instructions are provided when applicable.
