Construction and maintenance of tracks and infrastructure

We perform all kinds of operations related to the construction of railways and infrastructures, from the design process and earthworks to track superstructures. Thanks to our highly qualified and experienced team, and by using the latest railway technology and mechanisms available in the Baltics, we are able to work quickly, guarantee good quality and listen to the client’s wishes.

We perform every kind of operation related to the construction of tramways, from the design process and earthworks to track superstructures. Thanks to our highly qualified and very experienced team, and by using the latest technology, we are able to work fast, guarantee good quality and listen to the client’s wishes.

We are familiar with all types of work involved in railway renewal. Most such operations have been mechanised using the latest technology. All of the railways renovated by LEONHARD WEISS meet previously set criteria and ensure that trains will move at the predetermined speeds. We are prepared to work with other companies in the LEONHARD WEISS-Group and with third parties to carry out even the most specific assignments like cleaning track ballast and sanding rails. We use optimally mechanised solutions for all types of work, including replacing regular wooden sleepers, hardwood sleepers and various concrete sleepers and repairing and changing rail fasteners. We have all of the necessary tools and small mechanisms for handling different types of sleepers and rail fasteners. We also have rail excavators with additional equipment at our disposal. If necessary, we will restore railway geometry before replacing the rails in order to ensure a longer lifetime for the rails.

By delivering high-quality work and meeting the requirements set by the manufacturer, we can guarantee that the switch blades – which are regarded as the most complicated railway superstructures – can be used for a long time. Switch blades are installed using pre-assembled blocks or separate rail elements, if necessary. In order to prepare stable foundations and ensure the correct geometry, we make use of the latest equipment, such as the UNIMAT 08/275-3S tamping and lining machine. We use thermite welding and, if needed, restore grooved rails and rail ends by hardfacing them. Maintenance work includes preventive sanding. LEONHARD WEISS has the most modern rail and turntable alignment machines produced by Plasser & Theurer. Machine operators and supervisors have undergone training in a manufacturing plant in Austria and have extensive experience in rail geometry repair as well as overhaul of railways and construction.
