A track analyzer included on a vehicle traveling on a track includes a vertical gyroscope for determining a grade and an elevation of the track. A rate gyroscope determines a curvature of the track. A speed determiner determines a speed of the vehicle relative to the track. A distance determiner determines a distance the vehicle has traveled along the track. A computing device, communicating with the vertical gyroscope, the rate gyroscope, the speed determiner, and the distance determiner, a) identifies a plurality of parameters as a function of the grade, elevation, and curvature of the track, b) determines in real-time if the parameters are within acceptable tolerances, and, c) if the parameters are not within the acceptable tolerances, generates corrective measures.
