Abstract An idea of induction heating that may be useful in development of an effective method of heating railway turnouts in Poland is presented. Results of testing of a turnout induction heating method undertaken in 1978 - 1979 by the Polish National Railways operator (PKP) are discussed and provide the starting point for renewed research. A numerical rail model is introduced that is necessary to determine the distribution of magnetic induction and magnetic intensity across the rail itself and in its environment.
