Abstract: A track data determination system including: a video camera device positioned on a vehicle to capture video data in at least one field-of-view; a geographic positioning unit associated with the vehicle to generate position data and time data; a recording device to store at least one of the following: at least a portion of the video data, at least a portion of the position data, at least a portion of the time data, or any combination thereof; and a controller to: (i) receive the video data, the position data, and/or the time data; and (ii) determine track data based at least in part upon the video data, the position data, and/or the time data. A computer-implemented track data determination method is also disclosed.

Abstract: A modular support frame assembly for attachment to a railway vehicle body is provided. The modular support frame assembly generally includes a support frame comprising a plurality of tubular frame members and a plurality of connecting brackets connecting the tubular frame members to form a three-dimensional structure. The connecting brackets comprise flange elements to accept respective ends of the tubular frame members to form the three-dimensional structure. The ends of the tubular frame members are swaged to the flange elements of the connecting brackets. A mechanical device is supported by the tubular frame members, such as an air compressor driven by a driving motor.
