Abstract This document contains the results from four crash tests conducted at the Federal Outdoor Impact Laboratory (FOIL) located at the Turner-Fairbank Highway Research Center in McLean, Virginia. The crash tests involved two reusable bogie vehicles impacting an instrumented rigid pole. Two of the tests used the FOIL bogie vehicle and two tests used the ENSCO Inc. bogie vehicle. The objective of this report is to show that the FOIL and ENSCO bogie vehicles are comparable vehicles. Comparisons are made between the crush characteristics of the two bogie vehicles. The crush characteristics are presented as data plot~ of force vs. displacement, energy vs. displacement and peak force vs. momentum.
