A railroad gondola car may have stake pockets in which to mount stakes to permit a greater vertical envelope to be occupied by lading. The stake pockets are collapsible from a deployed position to a storage position. The stake pockets are mounted on doublers that mount to the side walls of the car in line with the side wall stiffeners and their associated cross-bearers. The connection between the stake pocket and the doubler is deliberately made weaker than the connection between the doubler and the side wall such that under abusive loading conditions the stake pocket may tend to shear off the doubler, and may tend thereby to leave the sidewall less damaged than might otherwise be the case.

    Un wagon-tombereau peut comprendre des gaines de potelets dans lesquelles des potelets peuvent être insérés pour offrir une enveloppe verticale supérieure à occuper par le chargement. Les gaines de potelets sont escamotables dune position déployée à une position de rangement. Les gaines de potelets sont installées sur des renforts montés sur des parois latérales sur le wagon à laplomb de raidisseurs de paroi latérale et de leurs poutres transversales connexes. La connexion entre la gaine de potelet et le renfort est délibérément moins résistante que la connexion entre le renfort et la paroi latérale, de sorte quen conditions de chargement abusives, la gaine de potelet peut tendre à cisailler du renfort et laisser la paroi latérale moins endommagée quen circonstances normales.
