Rhomberg Bahntechnik - Track Construction

Rhomberg Bahntechnik is a specialist and main/principal railway contractor covering all types of construction works on and near railway lines. Whether line side civil works, permanent way (fixed or ballasted), logistics, high- and low voltage power installations, overhead line, third/fourth rail, specialist noise attenuation, signal installations, maintenance and renewal or overall coordination and project management, their well-founded know-how in all principal fields of railway construction and upkeep makes Rhomberg a highly regarded railway contractor all over the world.

RAIL PROJECT MANAGEMENT, DESIGN AND CONSULTING

Developing scope, designing, planning and preparing the works at the right time, in the right order and in the right way, Rhomberg Bahntechnik (railway engineering and construction) makes the most complex railway projects possible - reliably and quickly. As consultants or contractors for discipline specific solutions, e.g. logistics including material supply and transport to site (supply management), they are the right choice!

BALLASTED TRACKS, NOISE PROTECTION AND ATTENUATION AND MECHANISED INFRASTRUCTURE MAINTENANCE

Bahnbau Wels (est. 1950), a fully integrated part of the Rhomberg group, supports Rhomberg Bahntechnik with an extensive know-how of ballasted tracks, noise protection (and attenuation) and mechanised maintenance of railway infrastructure with a modern and extensive rail plant department allowing for necessary flexibility in any given situation.

FIXED TRACKFORMS (e.g. SLAB TRACK)

For fast, safe and efficient track construction as well as reliable turn-out S&C installation, Rhomberg Bahntechnik deals with all approved types like Rheda, pre-cast, base plate- and/or "rubber boot" systems. Over 200km of recently completed fixed track in Europe alone proves their worth!

M&E, OVERHEAD LINE, SIGNAL EQUIPMENT INSTALLATIONS

Rhomberg Bahntechnik has the competence for the installation of specialist M&E tunnel equipment, fail-safe security facilities, overhead line assemblies, signal installation and the construction or refurbishment of stations.

RHOMBERG R&D (e.g. ACCURATE SETTING OF SLAB TRACK)

Trains are getting more effective and faster, making higher demands on the track, with longevity and reliability being determined by the construction method. Today's innovations, "tailor-made" technologies and the specific development of relevant expertise will therefore set the track for the future - with Rhomberg Bahntechnik’s full commitment to R&D. For instance, the accurate setting of slab track benefits from internationally tested adjustment and surveying systems like HERGIE and PLASMA for precise track measurement.

These and other systems can also be made available to other companies worldwide with the same degree of commitment and focus on high quality standards!
