RAIL ROAD AND METHOD OF ITS OPERATION Russian patent published in 2011 - IPC E01B2/00 E01B11/00 

FIELD: construction.

SUBSTANCE: method of a rail road operation includes movement of vehicles on it. The rail road comprises two guide rail tracks formed by rails joined with a gap. The butt end of a giving rail is made with a lift towards the joint at the angle of α₁ to the horizontal plane. The butt end of a receiving rail is made with a lift towards the joint at the angle of α₂ to the horizontal plane. Angles α₁ and α₂ are determined with account of a highest value of bending of appropriate rail butt ends in the area of the joint as a vehicle wheel passes along it, as α₁> α₂ or α₂ > α₁.

EFFECT: increased safety of traffic on a rail road, reduced power inputs for damage of rails and movable units of railway transport, reduced creepage of rails, lower impact loads and noise affecting a human being and environment, increased rail road and rolling stock service life.
