Abstract
A rolling stock fitting structure has laminated panels, each formed by sandwiching a core member between a pair of face plates, and channel members are placed between the face plates around the periphery of the panels and possibly in the interior thereof to provide structural strength. The laminated panels, which may be shaped to conform to a particular design, are joined and welded together to form a rolling stock body. The channels are provided with holding members for holding equipment, so that the load of the equipment on the holding member can be distributed through the channel member to the laminated panel, thereby securing the equipment reliably.
