ʻO ka DIN Standard Steel Rail transport, he mea nui ke kaʻaahi, no laila pono e hōʻoia ʻia kona hilinaʻi. E like me ke ʻano o ke kaʻaahi kaʻaahi, pono e hōʻoia kēlā me kēia ʻīniha o ke kaʻaahi i ka maikaʻi a me ka pololei, i mea e hōʻoia ai i ka palekana a me ke kūpaʻa o ke kaʻaahi. No laila, ʻo ka hana ʻana a me ka maikaʻi o ke kaʻaahi e koi i ka nānā pono ʻana a me ka hoʻāʻo ʻana e nā limahana loea a me ka ʻenehana.
I ka pōkole, ma ke ʻano he ʻāpana koʻikoʻi o ke kaʻaahi kaʻaahi, loaʻa i ke ala kaʻa nā hiʻohiʻona o ka ikaika kiʻekiʻe, ke kūpaʻa ʻana, ka pale ʻana i ka corrosion a me ka hilinaʻi ikaika, ʻo ia ke kī e hōʻoia ai i ka hana palekana a me ka maikaʻi o nā kaʻaahi.
