Abstract:

Since 2005, the Federal Railroad Administration and the Association of American Railroads have jointly funded a heavy axle load (HAL) revenue service testing program, with several objectives. One objective is to determine the effects of HAL traffic on track infrastructure by supplementing test activities performed at the Facility for Accelerated Service Testing (FAST) with a wider range of track, operating, and climatic conditions. The second objective is to identify issues that could negatively affect HAL operations and find solutions to address those issues. The third objective is to test and monitor new and alternative track designs and materials, as well as improve track maintenance procedures intended to mitigate adverse effects of HAL traffic on track degradation.
