A method for locating a rail vehicle along a rail route, along which a waveguide is laid. Temporally successive electromagnetic pulses are fed into the waveguide and, for each emitted pulse, at least one back-scattering pattern generated by vehicle-induced back-scattering of the electromagnetic pulse is received and evaluated. The waveguide has at least one locating section along the rail route, in which locating section the vibration sensitivity of the waveguide and/or the vibration acting on the waveguide is greater or less than outside the locating section. The amplitude of the received back-scattering pattern is evaluated and a location signal is generated if the amplitude of the received back-scattering pattern increases or decreases over the course of time.
