Disclosed is an eddy-current rail brake (100) which includes: a magnet array (11) which includes a plurality of permanent magnets (11a) arranged in one row so as to face toward a rail (1) in a braking state; a holding member (12) which holds the magnet array (11), the holding member (12) being supported so as to be rotatable together with the magnet array (11); a cylindrical member (21) which covers the magnet array (11), which is rotatable; and a driving device coupled to an end portion of the holding member (12). The magnet array (11) is switchable between the braking state and a non-braking state by rotating the magnet array (11). The rail brake (100) has high reliability for a long period of time.
