As an ex rail worker, these sounds bring comfort. 😊
But those joints don't
Comfort till you get a derailed wagon
Thanks Clint 😎👌👍
@@MrTarakan 😂
The railway tracks in Melbourne used for light commuter trains don't look much different, they move in a similar way despite much lighter trains.
If a Japanese Bullet Train *_(Shinkansen)_* technician saw this I think they’d cry... the tolerances they work with are *_insane !!_*
Well… not the same speed obviously…
Maybe Japanese enjoy a great travel comfort and safety... But they will never know those sweet satisfactory sounds of these bad detached rails...
For high speed trains they use welded tracks far better in modulating the stresses perfectly without any issues, in short they don't use joint tracks
.
Old signaling system used in Yugoslavia was track circuit. One track is return path for power, other track has small voltage over it. If train is over certain section, it will short these 2 tracks and system can detect train there. But every section must be separated, so they use plastic joint and piece of plastic in between rails to isolate 2 sections.
As a child, I lived a street away from a railway crossing in suburban Buenos Aires, Argentina. The tracks were so terribly maintained that I could hear this same characteristic "thap-thap" all the way from my home everytime a train passed by. This video is actually nostalgia material for me lol.
Seeing the track dip and the sparks fly as every wheel passes puts me on edge.
Right! One leaky tanker… its like a mad man with a flint and steel trynna cause hell
i slowed down , thats not sparks but paint on wheels

I like how this comment section is an argument between Serbs and Americans over who has the shittier rails

I hate to say it but Serbian railway system is much better as far as passenger services go than the States and I'm American. Granted most of the experience I have is from the Bulgarian railway BDZ
I'm from Hungary, so...
A few years ago at the port of Tacoma a string of tankers tipped over...going 5 mph!!! Thankfully they were empty.
I don't think US railroads have a whole lot to crow about.

@@user-pk6hl4tk7r
Self-tapping screw or lag bolt maybe? The treads look coarse and very wide, typical for screws that are meant to cut and "wedge" themselves into soft materials like wood. Regular bolts or machine screws usually have finer threading. Anyways, why the fuck are we talking so much about threaded fasteners?

Placing stones on tracks just before train could come and watchin that stone breaking and flying plus the hearing of sound of it was my CHILDHOOD FAVOURITE TIME PASS.

I did it with pennies as a kid, was always fun to set a few on the track before going to school, then come home and search for the squashed pennies.
@@evmanbutts Me too
Pennies on the track was my favorite as a kid! We had the old Kansas City Southern line right behind my parents backyard on Airline Hwy in Metairie Louisiana! As a child I used to hear those horns blowing waiting for the train to crush another 18 Wheeler or car at Clearview and Airline! It used to be a once a month thing until Jefferson Parish made Kansas City Southern move their tracks. We also had derailments that used to worry me because of the highly flammable cargo that they used to transport! Talk about nightmares wow I had many.

This also shows the tremendous forces at work every time any train runs over any track. Train tracks definitely really take a pounding wherever they are.
That is why rail iron is so precious.
Must be really hard.
Rail steel it fairly soft. It needs to bend and flex or it'll crack. Hard steel cracks.

so does ur mum
I saw a video on You Tube about rail lines and it was amazing at the engineering that goes into designing and building them. I m sure it's still available for anyone interested to inquire for it. I always thought the rocks were there to keep trees and other plants from getting started growing.
While this is part of why they are there , they do much more to prolong the life of the ties and track.
Very interesting, now I know how this noise is generated. I always loved that noise of clapping, it somehow makes me sleepy
I had never thought that the 'sweet sound' was actually the sound of a broken joint !
Thanks !!
Usually it isn't.
this sound took me back my childhood train trip , I miss those years

Bro rail is the safest transportation way...
No matter how f**kd up you put the tracks it is still safer than road just look at soviet rail and you start to believe railway is god
Nah its normal here in Serbia, lots of bad railway
It's good when the train pass over it at high speed and jumps
@@mixazizu Serbia and pfp checks out
@@mixazizu interesting to see how where i live in serb has "fine" railway yet belgrade has shitty ones lmao
I saw a train video that was made right around World War II of how much missing track it would take to derail a train. The findings were actually astounding. The trains they tested would jump a 3-foot section of missing track with no problems. If I could find it I would post it here.
Found it!
czcams.com/video/agznZBiK_Bs/video.html
It’s a famous WW2 US Government footage, just search “US ww2 train derailment”
So I know this is old now but still awesome. I cant believe though it took me several years to realize how dangerously close you were to a bad joint each time. I'm left with a realization that whether it gives out or not its the next track end downrange that might cause a derailment right next to ya. At least with a simple quick physics crunch.
Nah the gaps are for when in summer the rail expands and in winter it contracts
I love videos where people say a strange sound was coming from the sky. The strange sound always sounds similar to things I heard growing up, in a house close to the train tracks!
0:10 so that is how drugs are made
LoL

Am I the only one that finds these sounds kinda cool and relaxing?
POLARTTYRTM being a rail fan... I love these sounds... Here in Pakistan I mostly avoid AC Class and travel by Economy class just to enjoy the scenery and sounds...
Well back then was Mozart ,now is squeaking sounds of trains over rails..oh tempora oh mores!!(Latin)
i like train engine start up sound n electric train Motor
POLARTTYRTM Me too!
Yes. There is nothing like cool
I lived next to a railroad and heard this noise all the time. I never knew it was bad rail joints... lol! My favorite noise is when the train is stopped and starts going. The horn and then the "boom, boom, boom, boom" as each connection in the train gains tension with accelerating.
The sound of trains is simply wonderful! I love this! Very nice video!!!

Every other rail joint in this country is as bad as these so there's not much to report really. This is nothing compared to railway crossing ramps that are out of function for years in both urban and rural areas xD
Izak Goldman how do you know? are you used to be railway worker?
Few first seconds, the part with stones on track. As a dumb young kid I've done it with friends, until I've seen on my own eyes as splinter of much harder stone (I think we accidentally put a piece of granite on track instread of a sandstone) blew from wheel and literally cut down young tree measuring ~4cm in diameter. Thank god it did not hit us, it would equal shooting someone to the head with shotgun slug from point blank range. Me and my friends matured in an instant. Seriously, at least STAND THE FUCK OUT if you plan on playing that game. It will at least give you time worth half a blink to dodge projectile...
Small copper coins FTW. 👍.
Great & epic rail work....I like IT!!!! Big like from Romania
For me (I was railwayman) these sounds were, are and will be all time very pleasure music...
Fortunately the area around the Rakovica station has been renovated recently, including (I think) most of this: new rails, ballast, concrete sleepers etc.
Great sound - wonderful !! Zgrzyt wspaniały.
Potwierdzam
The house I grew up in is right beside the tracks, every morning you would hear a loud popping sound as the sun warmed up the tracks. In the evening time it would make a popping sound as the rail joint cooled down for the day. This happened for several years until they finally resurfaced the track.
I’ve changed them rail joiners once. It’s one hell of a job. But it has to be done. Great video very original
Although it is obviously very desirable that the track be maintained and repaired, it does show how (at low speeds) trains can manage on very rough track which is why they can be useful in emergency situations and have worked well on battle fronts.
batman51 It also shows why in the UK the standard of maintenance is much lower on a line used only for shunting. When lives are not at risk due to low speeds the risk is acceptable. At speed it is not.

I pointed out to our local RR guys that parts of the track had split and they we’re running on half a rail. They said it’s okay, when we derail they fix it.
Watching the track bounce puts me in a soothing trance. Weird

This joint can't possibly be any more broken than it already is lol.. there's literally not a single thing that's not bad
Yes, but about 11 months after this video was uploaded (4 years ago) the Serbian Railways made a massive effort and all of these rails were renovated and now there’s rail capable up to 200 km/h
Any aircraft pilot would easily dismiss it with: "any joint you can walk away from, is a good one."

The railway has done its own, reduced the permited speeds.
Makes me want to get some big wrenches and a sledge hammer and go about fixing things.
Almighty lord, What the hell am I doing with my life!?
Nice camera work though. And and those loose bolts, holy crap, I'm about to have an anxiety attack lol
I remember a level crossing that had an intersection between trains and trams on it, the crossing was so poorly maintained you could see it bouncing up and down under the weight of the trains, making a very distinct sound. It had a tendency to derail trams aswell
Amazing what people are into. Taking train spotting to the next level.

The fish-plate ( the name of the bar connecting 2 lengths of rails as seen in the points (switch in America) does not carry any load when a train passes over the joint. It's sole purpose is to keep the 2 rails lined up with each other. The bolts through the fish-plate are not fully tighted as that would prevent thermal expansion occuring (in the UK the gap between each rail is set at 3/32" (or about 2.4mm) with a rail length of 60' (about 18m)). A broken fish-plate is a serious matter. As is the moving sleeper (ties to the Americans) that are moving along with the bolts securing the rails to the sleepers coming out of the sleepers.
I thought for a moment that the wagons at the 05:00 mark were British bogie steel wagons (BR TOPS Code: BBA); they aren't but they do have a passing resemblence.
Connects the rail the other side out side is like a washer basically I was gonna say but I sware I connected them together and this line is a low traffic line anyways wooden sleepers high traffic is normally reenforced concrete can even get steel sleepers if I remember rightly there for low to medium traffic.
@@alexcantlow2016 Can't have steel ties without special insulating pads if the track is signalled. The joint at 8:20 is called an insulated joint for the signal system to work. There is an insulating piece between the rails as well as insulating thimbles over the bolts and insulating mats between the joint bars (fish plates) and the rails so electric currents can't travel through this joint.
When tracks are real bad, a train derails while it is not moving.
Nice seeing they fixed the joint in some of these clips

From the look of the rail heads this has been going on for quite a while.
Starting at around 8:20, all the remaining video footage is of broken rail that has been repaired. The standard procedure for a quick fix is to bolt an angle bar across the break. I worked at a railroad yard as a contract employee for nearly 21 years and saw this over and over.
Omg finally I know what happens if u put stones on track. I always wondered, but was afraid of putting rocks on a track
Believe me, the engineers already know where these spots are as their train passes over these same bad spots everyday. Nothing will get done until there is a total failure (derailment). Near my house in the late 70's in northern NJ, we had these failures and huge rail gaps on a daily basis. The fast trains were going 70MPH and were over 125 cars long and made a huge racket 5 times a day. We, as kids, (about 10 of the usual gang) removed the J bolts that hold the square wooden railroad ties' metal plates and hammered those metal plates down vertically into the gaps between the ends of the rails. This left about 10 inches of the heavy metal plate sticking up. We did this on every rail (each rail back then was about 25 feet long) for about 300 feet of a curve. When the next train came KABLAM, CRASH huge derailment and almost all cars would come off the tracks or flip over leaving their goods everywhere. We stole whatever we could get our hands on. (Schlage locks, Schlitz beer, Nekoosa paper, Aunt Jemima french toast, huge crates of veal and pork, orange juice etc etc. Police come, but we're already hiding in my house (about 200 feet from the tracks) going back and forth getting more goods. Understand that all neighbors hated the noisy trains and we as kids had a love/hate relationship with them. The RR crew had to fix all broken rails and support pieces. The whole cleanup took abouit 1 week. Nowadays, the Dept of Homeland Security and FBI would be swarming all over due to us. We derailed the trains twice in a 5 year period. The 2nd time, we removed all the J bolts for about 20 feet of rails and used a huge hydraulic jack in between the rails to separate them about a foot. Next train derailed easily. The good old days. Let the nasty comments begin, LOL. At least we called attention to the bad maintenance and got things fixed. And no one got hurt either, not the train conductor or any others.

Did you report this to authorities after you got it on video?
Even if you report it to them they aren’t going to do anything with it
Izak Goldman that is sad 😞 . It is very dangerous
it says its in Siberia the rail is mostly used for freight i would assume since there arent many cities in Siberia. It is still very dangerous, I would assume the Russians know about the bad joints because they are supposed to be replaced after a certain amount of time and that time is clearly up. It is just being ignored.
Robert B it’s Serbia not Siberia 😂

So I guess it’s safe to say that the TGV won’t be using that section of track just yet....all joking aside, I enjoyed seeing how the rails and sleepers reacted to the weight. Thanks!
First of all... NEVER put rocks or anything for that matter on the railroad tracks. There is always a chance of a derailment or flying objects. The safety of others is very important! Other than that, great video! Keep it up!
Absolutely agree. At most, coins are alright if you keep a proper distance from it

Probably not the best thing to do, considering there is always a possibility of derailment when you do that.
@@ibikein If you do that with a metal spike, it could either derail the train, or the metal spike will fly at you like a bullet.

Funny story, at 3:25 you can see an empty area on the left, between two sets of tracks. There are two more set of tracks that go there, but during the filming they were in the process of being replaced with now ones. Funny part is that the tracks shown in the video are not being replaced as the state's railroad infrastructure company stated that only main TWO (of total 6) tracks in the Rakovica station need replacing.
It seems that they will change all six tracks at Rakovica station. At least they promised that it would be so. First, change the two main tracks, 4th and 5th. It would be nice if they replaced and the other four tracks. We'll see one day when the works are almost been completed (Because the works were prolonged so much, as if they were building the entire Belgrade-Nis railway line).
Intéressant! Merci du partage! Stéph.
Is this break usually associated with track join method? Looks like these tracks use those bolts in these designs, whereas I was watching other videos of train track welders join two tracks by pouring molten metal into a mold on site.
Great video. Those tracks aren't being very well maintained ! :)
