ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for grinding rails of a track, includes a carrier frame which has roller-type tracers adapted for mobility on the track and is swingably mounted to a support frame for rotation about a pivot axis oriented longitudinally in direction of the rail. The support frame is provided with rollers which can roll on the track, with each roller and each tracer having a roller tread. A guide member which is adapted for bearing upon a vertical side of the rail head is secured to the support frame and adjustable with respect to the carrier frame wherein at a horizontal disposition, the rotational axis of each tracer is in parallel relationship with the rotational axis of each roller, with the roller tread surface on contact with the rail defining a roller contact area which in the horizontal disposition of the tracer is disposed at a vertically elevated position in relation to a roller contact area defined by the tracer tread surface on contact with the rail.
