A railway track () including at least two railway rails () and at least one measuring apparatus (), disposed under at least one of the railway rails (), for measuring vertical contact pressure, wherein the measuring apparatus () has at least one mat-shaped or planar carrying body () with a multiplicity of measuring sensors (), disposed at a distance from one another, for measuring the vertical surface pressure at the respective positions of the respective measuring sensors ().

Railway track sensor system for vertical surface pressure

A switch () for a track system for rail vehicles, wherein the switch () has rails () and a sequence of sleepers () and, in each case on an upper side () of the respective sleeper (), at least two of the rails () are fixed to each other in pairs opposite each other, and in each case an intermediate layer () is arranged between each one of the rails () and the respective sleeper upper side (), and the sleepers () each have a sleeper pad () on their undersides (), opposite their respective upper sides (), and the sleeper pads () each have at least one elastomer layer (), wherein the intermediate layers () each have at least one elastomer layer ().

Switch

The invention relates to a sleeper pad () for fastening to at least one outer surface () of a railway sleeper () facing a ballast bed (), the sleeper pad () including or consisting of at least one damping layer (), wherein the damping layer () has an EPM index in the range from 10 to 25%, preferably in the range from 10 to 20% when carrying out a load test.
