Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2007101520A1] In a method for renovating a track (3) by renewing rails (24) and cleaning a ballast bed (2), ballast (13) is continuously picked up by a clearing device (12), cleaned and then thrown onto the track (3) to re-establish the ballast bed (2). With respect to a working direction (8) of a cleaning machine (1), rails (24) that are ahead on the track (3) are raised and, respectively with respect to a transverse direction (30) of the machine, are moved outwards to a longitudinal side (25) of the machine. Behind the clearing device (12), the raised rails (24) are respectively placed down onto an area of the ballast bed (2) alongside sleeper ends (29) of the track (3).
