This paper presents comparative experimental and numerical strength analysis of wagon for containers transportation according to the TSI standard and norm EN 12663-2:2010. The aim of this analysis is to show that results of stresses obtained by measuring with strain gauges and stresses obtained by FEM calculation gives good agreement. Based on the results and their good match, it can be concluded that the numerical FEM analysis can be reliably used for structural analysis. According to this fact, FEM analysis can reduce number of the testing new products. This leads to great savings in the design of new prototypes, in order to immediately start the process of mass production. This would lead to significantly less cost of products.
