With regenerative rail maintenance, all surface damage is completely eliminated, and the target profile of the rail is fully restored. This regeneration is achieved regardless of the initial rail damage condition and is the basis for a successful cyclic-preventive maintenance strategy. In contrast to corrective maintenance, where a restoration is usually not possible, the …
