Test of quantity characteristic technical condition of railway turnouts

Abstract

The assessment of the technical condition of the railroad crossing from the approach to the safety of passengers traveling by train plays a very janitorial role. Bearing in mind how quickly destructive or abrasive materials of which the teams included in the next turnout were made, an attempt was made to determine the list of allowed deviations on railroad switch segments and values occurring at railway turnouts and affecting the dynamics of the rail vehicle passing through the crossroads. Both size groups that characterize the crossover can be used to assess the turnout status and define the forces occurring when crossing the crossover of a rail vehicle. The results of the analysis carried out for the actual data included in the technical train turnout form are also presented. Conclusions from the analysis were also formulated.
