Nine train-to-train rear end impact tests were performed, and the tests were documented. Volume I summarizes the vehicle properties obtained prior to the impact tests. These vehicle properties were used in computer simulation of the impact tests and included weights, pitch moments of inertia, spring rated, vertical center of gravity location, and linear dimensions.
