Abstract
A rail grinding machine comprises a machine frame having guide wheels running on the rail, a follower frame mounted on the machine frame, the follower and machine frames being pivotally connected for pivoting about an axis extending in the longitudinal direction, and the follower frame having sensing rollers running on the rail of the track. A rail grinding device is mounted on the follower frame for adjustment relative to the rail, a drive motor for driving the rail grinding device is vertically adjustably mounted on a vertical guide connected to the machine frame, and a transmission connects the drive motor to the rail grinding device.
