Our team of industry experts, specialists and associates provide practical solutions through investigative research and analysis to the most difficult railway engineering problems. ARRT also develops standards and policies for better track maintenance using the most modern methodologies available to ensure optimal track /train interaction and component life. As a key developer of innovative track technology, ARRT combines analytical tools available in ComputerAided Design, Finite Element Analysis, and event simulation with data from laboratory and field-testing to design better track components. ARRT’s experiences from derailment investigations and failure analysis has led to the development of our track/train interaction software called
ASET. ASET considers parameters such as multiple vehicle wheels, articulation of the train, train action, power location/ distribution in the train, track curvature, grade and thermal effects. Proper track/power asset management cannot be achieved without track/train interaction that respects these parameters. ArcelorMittal USA - Steelton 215 S.

According to certain information, softwood tie plugs hold the spike better than hardwood tie plugs. Cedar (soft wood) tie plugs do not have to be treated because they will absorb the treatment that the ties received. Density of cedar is lighter than hardwood, thus, when the cedar tue plugs are driven in spike holes, it does not damage the ties. We deliver accross North America and Mexico. RTA Member.

Data are graphically represented on GPS-derived route maps that can be overlaid on satellite, terrain and street-view maps. Track condition, exception and other reports are generated by menu-driven search tools that can be customized for each user. A Track Analyst Enterprise System, which connects to an Oracle or MS SQL Server database, allows railways to combine and store all of their track test data in a single database. Rangecam’s comprehensive suite of analysis tools enables Enterprise users to analyze and report on wear conditions, and plan system-
wide maintenance programs to extend rail and tie life. Rangecam programs’ ability to accommodate track geometry, GRMS, rail and wheel profile and defect data from various sources makes Rangecam an effective tool for all reporting, analysis and maintenance planning needs.

supplier directory Website: www.narstco.com E-mail: john.fox@narstco.com John Fox, Vice President Marketing NARSTCO is a leading manufacturer of steel crossties and steel tie turnouts. Advantages and benefits of NARSTCO Steel Track and Turnout Tie Sets: Cost-effective (simple and efficient to assemble and install; turnout assembly savings 3 to 1 versus wood; reduces the ballast required by as much as 40 percent compared to wood ties; extends life of other components, such as frogs, points, etc.; extends life of adjacent wood ties when interspersed); Track Environment (100 percent recyclable; no deterioration in fueling facilities; not prone to insect or bacterial attack; proven derailment survivability and can be repaired in track; no plate cutting or spike kill); Design Qualities (maintains track gauge and cant angle and are often used instead of gauge rods; excellent track stability and lateral load resistance with a track modulus similar to hardwood ties; ideal for tunnels and ballast deck bridges due to low profile and reduced dead load; can be encased in concrete or covered in asphalt; easy to insulate for track circuitry).

concrete panels transfer heavy traffic loads directly to the rails. This unique “bridge” design eliminates direct loading on the ties and maintains a constant level with the rail throughout the life of the crossing. The modular panels are maintenance-free, impervious to salt spray and have a lifetime skid-resistant surface. BODAN is the only grade-crossing system with optional builtin flashing warning lights.
