KITE Scala
There are numerous cases on the rail network, where there is the need to walk on, or very close to the track. In emergency cases, passengers may need to exit the train and walk trackside for long distances – and even leave the siding from high level before getting feet firmly on the ground safely
KITE Scala is designed for track worker access where the only alternative is to walk long distances from the nearest station, typically in short engineering hours and is an emergency egress facility – adequate for the evacuation of passengers to a place of safety. It can be utilised for welfare provision too – the enclosed structure could contain toilet facilities, emergency first aid provisions or off track break-out area for uses during engineering hours.
