irquick began trading as a compressed air engineering
company in May 1974 and quickly became established with British Rail in the late 1970s, replacing life-expired compressors on the Eastern Region.
As this work subsided, they were invited to look at other projects – initially building chemical pump rigs for train wash plants but ex- panding to the maintenance and repair of wash plants, fuelling systems, lavatory fl ushing aprons, CET systems and specialist design and build of bowsers for coolant, oil and windscreen top-up.

erman company Windhoff has launched a new modular series of road-rail shunting vehi- cles (ZRW series) for interdepart- mental shunting operations in railway depots and workshops, as well as industrial, corporate and port railways. One of the main du- ties of these versatile vehicles is intended to be their use at under- fl oor wheel lathe facilities (UFL) or for train washing systems.
The new vehicle series considers ergonomic aspects such as cabin access, cabin design, ease of ser- vice and maintenance. The high- quality vehicles cater to the user’s demands for maximum fl exibility,
durability and effi ciency. Another key aspect is the low life-cycle costs.
The ZRW-series will be available as a Diesel Hydrostatic (DH) pow- ered vehicle, as an emission-free, battery-driven vehicle (AEM) and with a hybrid diesel/battery drive system (DE). The towing capacity will range from 100T to 2,000T and the modular arrangement al- lows for highly individual, opera- tion-oriented solutions.
