Railroad Drainage: The Following "Before" Images Show Drainage Issues Under and Around Railroad Tracks

The document shows images of drainage issues under and around railroad tracks caused by unwanted water. Additional images show clean drainage structures and rehabilitation of drainage that have been performed using trenchless technology, including relining and extending drainage structures. Further images depict wick bores installed under railroad tracks using trenchless methods to remove unwanted water from below the tracks, preventing mud pits and allowing uninterrupted railroad traffic. The wick bores are installed by pulling a wick drainage pipe through a casing under the tracks and removing the casing.

The following is the casing


that will be pulled back under
the tracks. Inside the casing
is a wick drainage pipe.
Once the casing and wick
pipe are pulled through, the
casing will be pulled out
leaving the wick pipe in its
trail under the tracks.
