    Title :

    Rail grinding as an integral part of technically and economically efficient track maintenance - A high level of reliability and availability is demanded of the railway track. In order to guarantee a high track quality, cyclical maintenance and renewal interventions are required. This article addresses rail grinding as an integral part of technically and economically efficient track maintenance. The evaluation of the cost efficiency of the different rail grinding strategies requires a consideration of the grinding costs versus the long-term benefits. By means of the LCC (life cycle cost) analysis method, the long-term benefits of cyclical rail grinding, within the framework of track maintenance, can be verified. Thus, recommendations can be derived for technically and economically efficient rail grinding strategies, as well as optimisation potentials.
