In the United States, the federal safety standards for rail gauge (distance between two rails) is 4 feet, 8.5 inches, but that is far from the only measurement you’ll find necessary to the rail. Gauges must also be used to determine rail wear and to ensure rail is safe to travel, and up to standard.
MEASURE: GUARD FACE GAGE: 52 15/16″ TO 53 3/4″ INCHES. Your tool arsenal is not complete without railroad gauges! We offer many varieties for this essential tool – easily measure gauge, height and stagger, curve alignment, rail wear, test lateral strength, and many other components of track.
Description. Two Piece Track Gauge. Measures track gauge, guard check, face check, flangeway, elevation, and switch points. The Green Level Board is a track gauge that includes: Track Gage Measurement. Guard Check Gage Measurement. Guard Face Gage Measurement. Flangeway Measurement. Elevation Measurement.
Track Gauges. Rail Track Gauge measures the distance between the inner faces of the two rails at cross as well as height levels. Both these measurements are important track parameters. Height needs to be adjusted for curves and accuracy in cross distance by keeping a right angle to the longitudinal axis of the track.
Rolling Track Gauge Reader. Measure up to 2 inches gauge variation while walking down the track. Spring-action telescopic assembly expands and contracts as gauge changes. Worker can easily use the rolling railroad track gauge reader while walking by looking down at a lens and gauge scale.

The PTLF brings a complete gage strength assessment to a railway when combined with a Deployable Gage Restraint Measurement System (DGRMS) which performs similar measurements, but at high speed from a rail bound vehicle. The PTLF is based on research sponsored by the FRA and ENSCO internal research and development.
Dec 28, 2023 · RTG enables precise measurement of referenced track geometry at high speeds while retaining measurement accuracy, and does not require a track possession to undertake this task.
