The curved track is an important but weak part of the railway line. Diseases of the curved track have long been a prominent problem, not only significantly reduce the life but also bring a great threat to the safety of the railway. Maintenance of the curved track accounts for a large proportion of the maintenance of the entire line. So far, no effective measures could prevent the occurrence of the diseases. Measures commonly used can only reduce the incidence of such diseases. This paper describes the characteristics of the curved track and analyzes the types of curved track diseases and the influence factors of each type of disease. A health monitoring system is then introduced for the curved track. Feasible and effective prevention measures are discussed to reduce the incidence of curved track diseases.
