A holding device is provided for temporarily storing the ballast broom, the holding device being mounted on the machine frame and comprising two bearing arms for supporting the horizontal shaft of the ballast broom, the bearing arms being spaced from each other in the transverse direction. A horizontal guide extends in the transverse direction and displaceably guides the holding device in the transverse direction, and a drive is connected to the holding device for displacing the holding device in the transverse direction.
