Rail Grinding has just been carried out on the main line
between Peterborough and Broken Hill, The head of the rail
is slightly flattened after heavy use, and a lip forms on
either side of the head of the rail and this lip is removed
during grinding, uneven welded joints are also ground
during this work. I have a fair bit of info on rail maintenance
on my web page.
Yours in The Steam
