The construction of Scout Motors Inc.'s new production center in Blythewood, South Carolina, is making significant strides. This state-of-the-art facility, announced in March 2023, promises to create over 4,000 jobs and produce 200,000 vehicles annually. Recent updates highlight the progress made since the first steel beams were erected in May, showcasing advancements across the entire site.

The default strategy of industrialized construction being “let’s follow what the automotive industry does” is flawed on so many levels. I have seen very few off site construction strategies that are cogent. The strategic flaw is building a product that is already being produced but “better”. Maybe rethink the product first then, manufacture based on the product value prop. I think consumer preferences are always changing. I haven’t seen any of these companies actually spend time with the end customers in a meaningful way.

Learned something interesting today. We keep seeing videos and posts of how and why rail wheels are shaped conical, because they make the wheels self turning? Well, turns out BART fleet had flat wheels without any taper. After some digging, I discovered the engineering behind BART's wheel design isn't as flawed as many believe. Beveled wheels can cause "hunting," an oscillating motion that increases wear and tear, noise, and even derailment risks, especially in lighter, faster vehicles. BART's unique cylindrical wheel design was a deliberate choice to mitigate these issues, given the system's lighter weight and high speeds. It's a fascinating example of engineering trade-offs in action.

Fall’s arrival brings nearer the completion of several capital projects that our Engineering teams have been working on since spring. Two major mainline track additions are beginning to wrap up, one in California and another in Kansas -- just in time for Peak Season, that busy period when retailers ready for the holidays. On our California Division’s Needles Subdivision, a 180-mile section stretching from Barstow to Needles, we’re adding 30 miles of triple track. In November last year, 10 miles of triple track were put into service on this subdivision, and we recently completed the next 8-mile segment between Homer and Ibis. We’re on pace to complete the final 12-mile segment between West Needles and Ibis by mid-November. Pictured is one of the first revenue trains over the most-recent triple-track addition. Beyond California, as BNSF trains continue east along the Southern Transcon, one of the next-busiest segments is through the 222-mile Emporia Subdivision on the Kansas Division. This subdivision spans from Kansas City to Wellington, where we’re adding second mainline track. Recently, about six miles of Segment 6 (of nine segments) went into service. “Our customers will get to enjoy the full utility of both mainlines on Segment 6 starting on Oct. 3, following the final cut-over for this segment. When added to segments 1 through 5, we have a total of 46 miles of new double mainline track so far with this project,” Craig Rasmussen, assistant vice president, Engineering Services & Structures, said. With Segment 6 completed, remaining work on Segments 7, 8 and 9 will provide doubletrack between Augusta and Mulvane, Kansas, making the entire Emporia Subdivision’s track expansion complete. These investments combined with others – and the commitment of our team -- ensure that we support our customers and keep the freight we all depend on moving through the U.S. and beyond.

Here comes the third use case of the #PROSE inside series within our #service engineering capabilities: #Reengineering Reengineering of #components and #spare #parts helps to reduce fleet #maintenance costs. Parts that have to be replaced during the overhaul often result in high #procurement costs. #Obsolescence of spare parts can impact the fleet availability. Reengineering of components requires #knowledge about design, structural calculation as well as railway standards and certification issues. #PROSE has long term #experience in reengineering parts and components for #bogies and #rail #vehicles. ❗ Let us know if you need to reengineer parts or components and are interested in developing repair solutions. 👉 Get inspired by https://lnkd.in/ejCRNa_Z or #contact Armin Burth (armin.burth@prose.one) directly. #shapingtomorrowsmobility #series #fleet #costs #reducingcosts #overhaul #design #structural #calculation #railway #standards #certification #issues.

How does a ship lift work? Honestly, before seeing this marvel of engineering, I didn't even know that ship lifts existed... The Falkirk Wheel, named after the neighbouring town of Falkirk in central Scotland, is a rotating hydraulic boat lift, connecting the Forth and Clyde canal to the Union Canal. The difference in height between the two basins at the point where the wheel was built is 24 metres, roughly equivalent to the height of an eight-storey building. The #Falkirk #Wheel is a magnificent, mechanical marvel which has been constructed to 21st century, state-of-the-art engineering. It is already being recognised as an iconic landmark worthy of Scotland's traditional engineering expertise.
