The the bundle supporting wagons are provided with quick coupling means to mount the removable containers and supporting blocks and centre fixation are mounted to said quick coupling means. It also relates to a method wherein containers and a bundle of rails are transported in an alternating manner by a number of mutually coupled train wagons which are equipped with quick couplings for releasable mounting of the containers, with which quick couplings during transport of the bundle the supporting blocks and centre fixation are mounted to the wagons to retain the bundle to the wagons.
