Abstract
For correction of a track position in connection with ballast cleaning, after cleaned ballast has been returned to a a track, the actual position of the latter is measured while determining actual position data. Parallel to that, fixed point correction values are determined by a sighting trolley following behind. The actual position data and the fixed point correction values are transmitted to the tamping machine, following behind, and are used for determining correction values for a desired track position to be created by tamping.
Claims2
The method for correction of a track position in connection with ballast cleaning by means of a cleaning machine which precedes a tamping machine with regard to a working direction, comprising the following steps:
- a) after cleaned ballast has been returned to a track, the actual position of the latter is measured while determining actual position data.
- b) parallel to that, fixed point correction values are determined in that the track position with respect to fixed points is detected.
- c) the actual position data and the fixed point correction values are transmitted to the tamping machine, following behind, and are used for determining correction values for a desired track position to be created by tamping.
