Levelling of a rail vehicle (10) comprising a vehicle body (12) supported by two running gears (14) placed on a railway track (16) comprising two parallel rails (40) is performed by means of at least one laser plane generator (30) mounted at a stationary position relative to the railway track (16), which projects a rotating laser beam (44) that rotates about a vertical rotation axis (200) and extends below the vehicle body (12) in a reference plane (300) of the frame of reference perpendicular to the vertical rotation axis (200), and of a set of one of more laser receivers (36), each of which measures a height relative to the reference plane (300), so as to determine vertical distances between at least four vehicle body reference points (V) and the reference plane (300) and further vertical distances between a set of at least four rail height reference points (R) and the reference plane (300).
