Abstract
In a train formation, the passage from one car to the next is surrounded by a passover protection which comprises a central gantry closed on all sides which is mounted laterally displaceable relative to the cars. The central gantry is a mirror symmetric arrangement, even with the vehicle sides, consisting of adapter frames with peripheral abutments contacting elastic, hollow sections located peripherally between the abutments and the matching ends of the vehicle for small movement. A second set of peripheral, elastic hollow sections, structured for larger movement, is connected to the inner ends of the adapter frames and to the coupling frames. Connecting linkages are provided for guiding the adapter frames relative to the vehicles.
