Plasser & Theurer: Machine - Track renewal and track laying: Overview

Face-lift for high-speed lines
Rehabilitation of the first high-speed lines in Germany

Almost 35 years have passed since the first high-speed railway lines were opened in Germany at the beginning of June 1991. So it’s time to start renewing this infrastructure that is subjected to large loads. In June 2019, this work was started and is planned to be carried out over the next five years.

Track laying for India’s largest railway construction project
3,300 km of new track for freight transport: a megaproject

Produced at Plasser India, three SVM 1000 I track laying trains are working on the largest infrastructure project in India. The impressive construction projects include a dedicated freight corridor with two tracks totalling around 3,300 km.

Quality from the outset

Track renewal and track laying operations require high expenditure for personnel and machines. With the help of mechanised work methods these costs can be clearly reduced. At the same time higher initial qualities can be achieved.
Plasser & Theurer offers sturdy and high performance track renewal and track laying machines that operate in continuous working action. The integrated material logistics organise the transport of sleepers and rails to and from the worksite over the newly laid track.
