A rail vehicle includes a frame, a pair of wheels, a joint locator, a clamping assembly, and a processor. The wheels travel along a rail. The joint locator detects a joint bar on the rail. The clamping assembly is coupled to the frame and includes a pair of rail clamps disposed laterally outward of the pair of wheels. The processor is configured to automatically actuate the clamping assembly when the clamping assembly reaches the joint bar.
