The results of field tests of a radio frequency (RF) third rail deicer, the problems encountered, and the solutions to these problems are presented. The cost of operating a heated rail, which is assumed to use either insulated heat tape or a rod mounted in the rail web, is compared to this RF system. Some of the design aspects of a self-propelled vehicle design which incorporates the necessary operational design parameters and constraints are discussed.<>
