SNCF Reseau Railway Track Heating System - Rambouillet

Illustration – SNCF Réseau's track heating system during the cold snap that has been affecting France for the past two days. During periods of snowfall, ice accumulation can damage railway infrastructure and cause delays. Frost on overhead lines, for example, can paralyze certain lines. To deal with this, SNCF Réseau deploys several measures: switch heaters to free switches from ice, increased monitoring by staff, de-icing of overhead lines using electrical circuits and heating gas, and the use of scraper locomotives.
