The invention relates to a method for unloading, transporting and installing a railway track, which does not require the rail-carrying train to be brought closer after each cycle of unloading continuous welded rail (CWR), the train remaining parked at the end of the track already laid until all the CWR has been completely unloaded. According to the invention, the method consists of: fastening two rails to a crane of an unloading wagon and moving same through windows along the wagon, facilitating the descent thereof to the track; transferring the rails to a machine for pulling and positioning which moves along, leaving the rails supported on transport elements that move along the track already laid; transferring the rails from the track already laid to a section of sleepers; and moving the rails to their final position, using sliding elements placed on the sleepers.

A procedure for laying railway tracks on a trackbed on which sleepers (20) are located, that comprises at least the following steps: a) approach of a track laying train (30) with the stretches of rail (1) to be laid in the laying area; b) joining of the pairs of rails (1) to the consecutive rails (1) by means of tractor plates (200); c) unloading the pairs of rails (1) from the track laying train (30) onto the bed; d) squaring of the sleepers (20) by means of a squaring device; e) joining of the consecutive pairs of rails (1) by means of a joint plate (100); f) unloading of ballast in hoppers onto the bed; g) tamping of the rails (1); h) profiling of the ballast by means of a profiling device (400); i) welding of the rails (1).

A rail pulling system comprising a first and a second pin, a first and a second bolt, a first and a second threaded hole, and a first and a second receiving bore. A method of pulling rails comprising inserting a first pin through a first rail hole of a first rail, the first pin having a first receiving bore mount secured thereto; inserting a second pin through a second rail hole of a second rail, the second pin having a second receiving bore mount secured thereto; securing a first threaded hole mount onto the first pin; securing a second threaded hole mount onto the second pin; inserting a first bolt through a first receiving bore on the first receiving bore mount until the first bolt functionally engages with a second threaded hole on the second threaded hole mount; inserting a second bolt through a second receiving bore on the second receiving bore mount until the second bolt functionally engages with a first threaded hole on the first threaded hole mount; rotating the first bolt; and rotating the second bolt.

A rail alignment tool for aligning a rail segment of a railroad track positioned on a plurality of railroad ties is provided. The rail alignment tool includes a first side member and a second side member. The first side member includes first and second adjustment arms, and a first connecting member between the adjustment arms. The adjustment arms are positioned on opposite sides of a railroad tie. The second side member receives the adjustment arms and includes a second connecting member. At least one of the side members includes a first adjustment member that extends from the first and/or second connecting members in a first direction substantially perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the rail segment. The adjustment arms engage a bottom surface of the rail segment and move the rail segment away from the railroad tie when the first adjustment member is extended.
