<p>The present invention relates to a method for removing material from a wheel of a track vehicle that runs over a rail surface. The method comprises the steps of: a) providing a track section (1) of a railway track for a track vehicle to be driven over said track section, the track section comprising two spaced-apart rails (4) extending parallel to each other, wherein a machining device (2) is provided at or near at least one of the two rails, on a side of said at least one rail remote from the other rail, which machining device is designed to remove a flare (11) on a wheel (5) rolling past the machining device over said at least one rail, at least in an operational state of the machining device; b) driving a track vehicle over said at least one rail of the track section; and c) causing the wheel to make contact with the machining device during step b) and removing, during said contact, a flare that may be present on the wheel. The invention further relates to a track section and to a machining device for use with such a method.</p> |
