ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a device for weighing rail guided vehicles. The device has at least one moveable truck support element and in the preferred embodiment has both a stationary platform and a moveable truck support assembly. The vehicle to be weighed may be placed on the device by either pulling or pushing. The vehicle to be weighed may approach the weighing device in either direction. Each end of the vehicle is weighed on separate weighing elements and the weight on each element is summed, preferably electronically to yield the overall vehicle weight. Typically one end of the vehicle is weighed on a stationary platform and one end is weighed on a moveable assembly.
