On the afternoon of October 5, in Song Than 1 Industrial Park (Di An City, Binh Duong), Gemadept Joint Stock Company has just appeared 3 super-heavy special purpose vehicles used to transport train carriages on subway line 1 even Long depot Binh is in district 9.
As PV pointed out, each dedicated vehicle is paired with 12 axles with a total length of 32m. In which, the “largest” has up to 110 wheels; the remaining two vehicles, each with 106 wheels.

The wheels are controlled to turn the direction and help the driver to move forward or backward more easily in curves.
Super long and super heavy cars that transport line 1 of the metro
Mr. Huynh Huu Phuoc (59 years, almost 30 in the profession), the driver of the “largest” car in the convoy, said: Depending on the type of cargo and transport needs, it is possible to join the axles, with the entire length . One hundred meters or parallel to double the width.
To transport a train car of subway line 1 (weight 37 tons), only 12 axles are required (load capacity of 200 tons or more) to guarantee the absolute requirements of load capacity and load size.
“I used to drive a vehicle transporting equipment and machinery for many thermal energy projects like Thanh Hoa, Thai Binh, Fomosa, Cambodia… There is equipment that weighs more than 300 tons.
In this time of transportation, the wagons are much smaller in size and weight, but we move through the city, so safety comes first. The routes we travel will have the traffic police in the lead, so it is very reassuring, “said driver Phuoc.
According to the plan, the carriages back to Khanh Hoi port will be transported a distance of 26 km, following the routes: Nguyen Tat Thanh – Ton Duc Thang – Nguyen Huu Canh – Nguyen Co Thach – Mai Chi Tho – Hanoi Highway – Highway 1 – Highway No. 400 – Hoang Huu Nam – Highway No. 11 to Long Binh Depot (where the ship is repaired and maintained) District 9 on October 10
In particular, 3 train carriages of subway line 1 (Ben Thanh – Suoi Tien) left the port of Kasado (Japan) on September 30 for Ho Chi Minh city in the port of Khanh Hoi, district 4, the October 8th. These are the first of the 51 wagons of metro No. 1 that operate in the first phase (17 trains, 3 wagons each). The remaining 48 cars will be put on later. Each subway car is 21 m long, 3 m wide, 4 m high and weighs 37 tons.

The Ministry of Transport guides the topography and the development of transport plans.
It is expected that on October 6 the General Directorate of Highways will issue a license to transport super long and super heavy wagons of the No. 1 metro.
