Video Discription |
Crushed Rail Head weakened the rail enough so the Rail Broke when
I was tamping. This is the 7th broken rail that has happened with the tamper
over my 18 years of tamping. It sounds like a shotgun going off
when the jack beam on the tamper clamps the rail and the rail breaks.
The jack beam picks the rail up and the rail then has a longitudinal bend to it, that
and along with the weight of the ties, if there is a weak spot inside the rail,
it can easily break.
Also going to show you these Rail Defects: crushed head, flowed rail
and spalling. All three are classified under the heading of Rail Head Surface
Defects. All are caused by Rolling Contact Fatigue from the loading of the
train's car and locomotive wheels.
Here is link to a follow up video where I show you what the inside
of the rail looks like at the break. Some new evidence has come
to light after we changed this rail out:
