Abstract
As part of the United States Department of Energy (DOE) Atlas Railcar Project, the Atlas and Buffer railcars were developed to meet the need for future large-scale rail transport of spent nuclear fuel and high-level radioactive waste. MxV Rail (formerly Transportation Technology Center, Inc.), a subsidiary of the Association of American Railroads (AAR), performed singlecar certification testing and modeling on these railcars. This report provides a summary of testing and modeling results in accordance with S-2043 requirements for the Single-Car Test (Paragraph 5.0) and Post-Test Analysis (Paragraph 8.0).
