What is a "spreader"?
A spreader is a type of railway maintenance equipment used to distribute materials, such as gravel or ballast, across the track bed. It works by using blades or other mechanisms to spread the material evenly along the track to maintain proper alignment and stability. Spreaders are essential for keeping the tracks in good condition, ensuring smooth train operations and preventing issues like track instability or obstructions. They help maintain the railway's overall safety and efficiency.
Example
During track repairs, the spreader plays a vital role in restoring the proper alignment and support of the rails.
The spreader operates efficiently to ensure the safety and reliability of train operations.
Operators carefully maneuver the spreader to cover areas where the ballast needs adjustment.
