An embodiment of the present disclosure provides a vehicle having a cargo area that includes an internal surface. A longitudinally extending bar is located within the cargo area of the vehicle. A bag configured to hang onto and slide along the longitudinally extending bar. A movable rail assembly is attached to the internal surface and includes: a rail moveable between extend and retract positions with respect to the cargo area; a bearing engageable with the rail to assist moving the rail between the extend and retract positions; and a bracket attachable to the bearing to suspend the bearing and the rail in the cargo area and away from the internal surface.

In an apparatus and method for operating an apparatus having a mobile part which is movable on a movement plane and has a measuring unit, and a measuring body which is set apart from the movement plane and from the plane parallel to the movement plane that includes the measuring unit, for example, and is situated as far as possible from the movement plane, the measuring unit is adapted to determine the distance between the measuring body and the measuring unit in a normal direction to the movement plane, and the measuring body is shaped such that in the projection of the measuring body perpendicular onto the plane, e.g., the projection surface, an individual distance value is bijectively allocated to the, or to the plurality of, partial surface regions of the projection surface, which particularly do not overlap one another.

A rail and train system has at least a rail pair on which a rail vehicle that is provided with at least one wagon is movable. In the wagon, at least one lifting device is accommodated with which containers can be transported through an opening in the floor of the wagon and which is movable transverse to the length direction of the wagon. The rail vehicle can be provided with a chassis that is formed by two chassis parts that are positioned at a distance behind each other in the travel direction.
