The working title of the concept was ‘There’s no such thing as impossible’. In our Rail Service Centre, the expansion joint was attached to the lengthy rails with the aid of a flash but weld. Since this procedure is executed under fully controlled circumstances, the quality of the weld is always 100%, which considerably prolongs the rails’ lifespan. With our Robel train, we then delivered the welded rails - ready for installation and in the proper installation order - to the contractor at the exact location where they had to be placed. In this way, the contractor was able to install them directly, which significantly reduced the time required for keeping the rail trajectory occupied.
