At the Experimental ring of JSC “VNIIZHT” at Shcherbinka station, the comparative tests of four types of ballastless structures of the LVT track (Russian Railways, Russia), FFB (MaxBögl, Germany), NBT (Alstom. France), EBS (Tines, Poland) had been completed. The tonnage passed through the experimental section of four structures amounted to 600 million tons gross. The tests allowed confirming the operability of the ballastless track for the conditions of the Russian Railways, identifying the features of the current content of each of the structures and giving recommendations for their improvement. The paper analyzes the intensity of ballastless subsidence under the train load. Tests have shown that ballastless track can be used not only for a speed and a high-speed traffic, but also for combined and cargo traffic. Significant risks are that the ballastless track is more demanding for adhering to the construction technology, the composition of concrete mixtures and the quality of the preparation of the foundation.
