SOME CONSIDERATIONS CONCERNING PERMANENT WAY FOR HIGH SPEEDS

Speeds above 220 km/h call for new design of track maintenance machines and assessment of available rail fastenings whilst improved stability and track geometry realise a long lasting infrastructure which is furthered by non-destructive testing and rail grinding of rails. Relative train speeds evaluation on pre-set parameters in relation to cant can regularise an approach to riding and track forces.
