Popis: Methods of loading gondola cars with bulk cargo are considered and possible types of non-uniform cargo distribution in the car bodies are established. The most common methods of levelling bulk cargo in gondola cars in the Ukrainian railway network are determined. Designs of equipment for mechanization of levelling bulk cargo in gondola cars are presented, their advantages and disadvantages are considered. Based on the given analysis, it is established that the most efficient way to ensure compliance with the current regulations on the placement of cargo in cars is the timely detection of non-compliance with these requirements at the stage of loading. The analysis of existing methods for determining the non-uniformity of cargo distribution in the car bodies was conducted. Based on this analysis, a new method for determining the nonuniform distribution of bulk cargo in the car bodies is proposed, which can be used to preestimate the compliance of the actual placement of bulk cargo in the car body with the requirements of current regulatory documents immediately after loading and take prompt measures to eliminate the identified inconsistencies.
