Abstract

The goods truck features a superstructure which is made up of interconnected longitudinal walls, end walls and floor and is designed to form a self-supporting body which twists relatively easily. The roof features at least one longitudinal part which is attached to one longitudinal wall and, with respect to the end walls and the other longitudinal wall, exhibits freedom of movement in the longitudinal direction which accommodates the twisting action. A charging port/charging ports can be provided in the roof. By employing the concept according to the invention the danger of derailment can be reduced, and fatigue crack formation avoided in the region of the roof.
