The absence of protective elements on railway tank wagons in case of accidents can lead to significant losses and adverse effects on the environment. This is especially the case for railway wagons for transportation of ignition matters. The article deals with the analysis and the development of the protective elements structures. Two variants of protection are developed - anti-climbing devices and protective shields. Innovation patented design variants are presented. New materials are used in protective constructions, such as aramid, non-Newtonian fluid. A series of measurements and simulation analyses for the integration of protective elements have been made. For the selected constructions, the results of strength researches of constructions are presented. The advantages of the proposed designs are evaluated.
