Abstract
A method for renewal of a track includes picking up a plurality of old track panels using a crane jib projecting over the track from a train end of a work train and depositing the old track panels on the work train, thus creating a renewal gap delimited by a gap beginning and a gap end. New ballast is introduced with the aid of the crane jib into the gap end of the renewal gap. Subsequently, a new track panel pre-deposited on the work train is placed by the crane jib on the graded ballast of the gap end. A work train for renewal of a track is also provided.
