Abstract
The paper describes the development of railway permanent way design during the past 25 years and its consequences on the long-term behaviour and the emission of structure-borne noise. Mention is made of the effects of the track geometry and of imperfections as well as of high-frequency excitations on the durability of the track geometry.
