Maximum permissible plated bogie weights depend on the number of axles and the limits of the axle itself.
Axles are commonly rated at 9,000kgs but this cannot be used as a guide as axle types vary.
- 3 axles - 8,000kgs limit per axle - maximum 24,000kgs on bogie
- 2 axles - 9,000kgs limit per axle - maximum 18,000kgs on bogie
- 1 axle - 10,000kgs limit per axle - maximum 10,000kgs on bogie
