Mounted on additional frame are sleeper taping unit, means for rail road track surfacing and control equipment. Additional frame is installed on main frame by means of two transversal beams to which above roller guides are secured so that roller guides are located from both sides of longitudinal axis of machine symmetry. Transversal beams are installed on the main frame to perform displacement along the guides and are connected with drives providing additional frame movement across the machine.
