The paper has carried out continued tests on a curve of a heavy haul railway in China for its rail profiles. Based on the data, the paper has counted the development of the rail profile wear, and then analyses the influence of wheel-rail contact geometry on the rail profile wear. The results show that the wear of high rails develops around the rail corners, while the one of low rails around the rail top. The development of the rail wear speeds up after the transport mass passes 210MGT. The wheel-rail contact geometry deteriorates when the transport mass grows up to 60MGT and lower than 210MGT.
