The tamping device of the Duomatic 08-32 of Kölngleis seen in Aachen West on 19 October 2001. There are four pairs of tamping arms on each side, so two sleepers can be processed in one step. On the left is a device with horizontal wheels to lift the rails. Above it the work direction (Arbeitsrichtung) is marked with a blue arrow.
