ABSTRACT:
An apparatus or machine for simultaneously removing and in situ severing of rails from a rail bed to produce a plurality of rail sections of predetermined lengths including a sled frame defining a rail channel with a block or blade mounted on the sled frame across the rail channel at the rear thereof. Ram means are mounted on the sled frame above the rail channel spaced from the block and moves along a ram path extending from a level above the rail channel to a level below the rail channel. Control mechanism is associated with the ram means for actuating the ram to travel along the ram path to contact a rail and force same against the block or blade to cause the rail to fracture, continued movement of the sled frame along the rail bed and continued operation of the ram means causing the rails to be lifted from the rail bed to be cut into predetermined lengths.
