The invention relates to an arrangement for de-icing railway trucks and ore concentrate in railway trucks. The arrangement comprises a tunnel (2) having a number of discharge openings (3) for heated air which is used for de-icing and at least one exhaust opening (4) for used air. An air heater (5) is in communication with the discharge openings (3) through a supply air duct (6). The arrangement further comprises a water supply device arranged to supply water to the air heater (5) and/or the supply air duct (6). The capacity of the air heater (5) is high enough to heat the air to a temperature sufficient for vaporizing at least a portion of the water. The invention also relates to a corresponding method for de-icing.
