What is this standard about?

This standard specifies the requirements for the draw gear and screw coupling for the end of rolling stock such as freight wagons, locomotives and passenger vehicles.

Who is this standard for? 

  • Rail operators 
  • Rail technical specifiers
  • Rail engineers and designers 
  • Rail procurement industry
  • Rail maintenance
  • Health and safety executives

Why should you use this standard? 

BS EN 15566 gives guidance for three categories of classification for the functionality, construction, interfaces and testing (a pass/fail criteria) for draw gear and screw coupling. 

NOTE: Coupling systems between permanent coupled vehicle units are not in the scope of this standard. 

What’s changed since the last update?

  • The revised standard brings guidance up to date with recent developments in draw gear and screw coupling
  • The new standard harmonizes with the latest European recommendations
