Article considers modern shumo-vibroprotective materials for car building. Security measure of the person from vibration in cars are constructive improvements, applica-tion of means of external vibroprotection by uprugodempfiruyushchy materials and devices which take place between a source of vibration and the person, and also continuous control of serviceabil-ity of cars and their timely scheduled preventive repair as in use and wear there is an expressed strengthening of vibration. Considering that constructional features of cars provide compliance "To health regulations on the organization of passenger traffic on railway transport" in the course of formation of structures and at operation of cars there are the technical problems caused by aging (technical wear) cars, a detsentrovka, defects of a way, etc. that leads in practice to deterioration of an acoustic mode of internal rooms of cars. Comparative researches of sound-absorbing properties of a material from aramide fiber and ecologically safe material NOL-1A(B) are conducted. Decrease in noise levels in rooms of cars, due to use of modern materials is experimentally established. NO-L-1A use in a design of air ducts of cars of locomotive draft allows to reduce considerably noise level in rooms, and to raise ecological characteristics of cars.

Article considers the analysis of working conditions of conductors of cars. Major harmful and adverse production factors inherent in this profession: vibration, noise, dust content, chemicals, adverse microbiological atmosphere. Work of conductors belongs to category of «travelling» pro-fessions, and, bigger number of conductors are occupied on long trips, moving during 3 and more (till 7 days). The incidence structure also has a number of differences: at conductors of cars diseas-es of respiratory organs, bodies of blood circulation, bone and muscular system, a trauma and al-lergic diseases prevail. Diseases of respiratory system at conductors make more than a half of all cases of temporary disability and meet mainly in the form of ORZ, rhinitises, bronchitis and pneu-monia that indicates the need of regulation and normalization of the air environment of the car which is object of long stay and a conductor workplace.

Within the framework of the article, a study was made of the workplace of wheelchair washers for the purpose of determining the main occupational diseases and the causes of their occurrence. The theory of constructing rational modes of work and rest for working in the off-season in the open air is considered. The equation of integral index of cooling conditions is given. The risks associated with working in the cold are listed, as well as basic protection measures for workers, such as personal protective equipment and recommendations for restroom equipment. Within the framework of the article, the technological stages of manual washing of passenger carriages and a number of harmful production factors at the workplace of wheelchair washers are considered. In the process of analyzing the working conditions of the profession in question, a number of prof. diseases such as acute intoxication, dermatitis and dermatosis. The results of the conducted tests for the evaluation of the toxicity index and operational tests of samples of the detergent «Trans-Eco» with the aim of improving the working conditions of the passenger car wipers are presented.
