An axle counting method for rail-mounted vehicles having the following method steps: • producing an electromagnetic transmission signal (TX) with a frequency, by a frequency source (1), • transmitting the electromagnetic transmission signal by means of a transmission device (2) of an electromagnetic rail contact element, • detecting the electromagnetic transmission signal as first reception signal (R.X1) and second reception signal (RX2) by means of two spaced-apart receiving units (4a, 4b) of the rail contact element, • transmitting the reception signals (RX1, RX2), • producing an evaluation signal (RX1b-RX2b) within a signal processing unit (10), is characterised in that, to generate the transmission signal, a single transmission unit is used, and in that the reception signals received by the two receiving units originate from the same transmission signal.
