Rail Heater on Norfolk Southern Railroad
มุมมอง 7412 ปีที่แล้ว
The Kershaw RH446 Rail Heater is designed to heat the rail in order to expand it prior to installation. When the rail cools and contracts, the rail will be under tension. This will help reduce rail deformation during seasonal climate changes throughout the year. The Rail Heater consists of a prime mover (Power Car) and a burner car.

Drone Tamper - Unmanned Railroad Tamping
มุมมอง 4.3K2 ปีที่แล้ว
This unmanned tamper works two ties and skips one tie automatically without an operator. It requires a lead tamper to smooth the track and tamp every third tie. The lead machine also continuously communicates wirelessly with the drone tamper.
Tamping Muddy Ballast Under Crossing
มุมมอง 4612 ปีที่แล้ว
The ballast that was under this level crossing is very muddy and fouled. Evident by the difficulty of the tamping tools to reach proper depth.
TX16 Tamper
มุมมอง 20K2 ปีที่แล้ว
Tamping machines create a smooth and level track by lifting low spots and straightening misalignments while compacting the ballast under the tie.

How much are the tamper bits? They must wear pretty fast
What does the track ballast sit on? Does it just sit on earth . . . ?

Not Bad Whats the New Cement Tie's ....as Waight and Longevity. Per Break Down in Year's Till Replacement From Ware. Seen the Metal Post's on an Amtrack Video.
RAIL TAMPERING COULD COST YOU MORE THAN JUST A FINE £5000 and 10 years in jail .

Thank you for these videos of MOW. My father did this for Southern Railway for over fifty years. He started out in the 1930s, went through WW2 with a U. S. Army Railway Operating Battalion in the European theater. Resumed MOW work for Southern after coming home . I would sometimes go with him for a day or two if his work was close to home and get to see him work, it was a completely different time and way of things back then.
First clip it's not even lifting?
Loose fastenings everywhere, so tamping it is a waste of time
Tie Crane was my machine.
It's cool to see all of that track maintenance equipment.
I see where each piece of equipment is designed to move on the tracks , but how do they get to where they are going, surely they don't travel great distances do they? It seems like I watched one video where when they were done and ready to go to their next destination they were loaded up on flat bed railcars, is that how it's done?
Hypnotic I love these machines (saddo lol)
Relativo, parece que nem da levante
This thing Tamps backwards ? That’s wild. If I am being honest I kinda like plassers set up in he way they had the 09-16 with the mainframe that you sit in with a plunger pushing the satellite out in front. The 09-16 plasser was a very comfortable ride to operate. I ran one back in 08. I would be curious to see how this thing stacks up against it not just in performance but also in how comfortable it is operating it
Damn, I hate tie gangs. Too much walking.
They get paid for doing it. Stop complaining
Thanks to the hard-working employees who built these machines. I dont think employees get the credit they deserve. Take care of your great employees!!!
Y’all did a lot of work in North Dakota last year and was trying to get a 19A out there because I have buddy who was on your gang.

I was watching a video called "Every Type of Railcar Explained in 15 Minutes". I wanted to know more about the railway repair machinery. Thanks for posting this video.
When AI becomes sentient, will you know how to kill this machine? 😀
I see these here in Oklahoma but never paid attention to how do things
3:22 What does this machine do?
The machine is called an anchor spreader. It spreads the anchors, so the new tires can be placed in easier.
Thank you for letting us see this up close.
I know I was hearing some Detroit’s running… miss that sound man
Where would we be today without all this? The work, the cost is all incredible and they still have about 1700 derailments annually.
is this US? crazy you still use spikes, those ties seem quite loose
what country are you, how many thousands of miles of rail line in ur nation?
I work on the railroad and we so everything with a backhoe lining bars claw bars tamper regulator spike driver spike puller hydraulic impact rail saw hydraulic rail drill
Where was this
Appears to be somewhere on the Union Pacific.
What a unique machine. It's like a road grader with different attachments
For about a month, in Grand Junction CO I’ve been noticing a huge collection of big equipment connected together as if readying for something. I’ve never seen equipment like this and it is so varied, my curiosity got the best of me. I noticed the name HARSCO on the side of one and looked them up. These are amazing machines. 👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks to all employees who built this machine!!!
That is track relaying train (TRT) manufactured by M/S Harsco. It is being used by Indian railways from a long time for the renewal of existing railway track by changing its old sleepers and rails and compacting the ballast bed.
@@Vikaskrbharti I’ve done a little bit of research since……amazing machines,
My mark 4 is faster!!
How many ties/min?
Interesting technology!

In 1969 I worked for Norfolk & Western Railroad out of Moberly, Missouri on an “extra tie gang” we took out old ties & put in new ones, we did about a half a mile or so a day using 5 machines & 28 laborers & Gandy dancers using tie-tongs, tamping bars, claw bars, picks/shovels, rail tongs, lining bars & other tools. The machines in this video did in hours what took us all day to do. We worked 10 hours a day, 5 days a week for a measly $150.00 a week, but hey, in 1969 that was good money. The work in the video seems so robotic, & monotonous & I understand progress from the way we used to do it 53 years ago, but on our tie gang we had the same camaraderie that I felt in the Army. The old way that we worked, joked & sang putting in ties is what they used to write songs about, I never heard any railroad songs about clanging machines! 🤣🎶✌️🤘👍
Thats some great history Michael. Thanks for sharing!
@@RailroadMaintanceofWay 🙏🚂👍
The camaraderie hasn’t left at all, I got into this after the Army and it is more brotherhood involved in the railroad than this new Army.. They may as well give troops suits, ties and their own cubicles these days! I love railroading!
@@ashc4167 😁👍👌
Good
В России есть ПРМ-5 каторая только путь рехтует и подсыпку делает.
I wish I could see one in action. Just seen the rail grinders and U.P. vegetation control train. Great video
🤔❤
Good video, but I think you have the gang number wrong.
TP03 is what I have from my records. Any idea what it might be?
@@RailroadMaintanceofWay I’m not sure what gang that is, I just know TP03 doesn’t have open cab spreaders or squeezers.
What amazes me is the designers of these machines and how they are manufactured and built.
Awesome engineers, designers, and fabricators.
@@RailroadMaintanceofWay Was the 70s/80s the last of the busting ass for tie gangs doing everything by hand? Cause it always amazed me how the hell a crew could get so far laying rail by hand.
Also the line is not electric traction.
So what? 'Electrified lines' don't make a poor, backward country developed. Do you know that? How many of you have access to safe, potable water? And reliable medical care? And of course, nutritious, wholesome food? And finally, clean sanitation?
In India we use only concrete sleepers. Are we more advanced.?
Hahaha! Can't laugh enough! Just because you use concrete (!) 'sleepers', you rant you are 'advanced'! May be, in corruption and lawlessness, if not squalor and poverty, you can claim that position!
Nice work from pakistan
Вот Бля тебе и загнивающий Запад. За то у нас как все "продвинуто" или задвинуто.

How long does it take to replace 1 mile of ties? And how many ties are there per mile?
A good gang can finish 2 miles of track in a 8 hr shift. Wood ties are spaced at 19.5 inches (nominally), so there are about 3400 ties in a mile. Only 20 to 40% of the ties get replaced though, otherwise the track geometry would be disturbed too much.
@@RailroadMaintanceofWay buena información
фигня какая! все автоматизировано, тяжелой работы нет и погода хорошая а у нас в дождь и снег вручную все это делается, а из автоматизации лом и лопата!
Hoe old fashioned is this, track fastened with spikes to wooden ties , railway preservation societies in Europe use more modern equipment
US railroads have historically built track with wood ties (even today). Timber is abundant and cheap. Plus US has 140,000 miles of active track.
Great operator's
