People living along the line have the most voice when the train passes by. On the same road, change sleepers, and you can hear different. It is not surprising that wooden sleeper track can be 3-5 decibels lower than cement sleeper in engineering.It's three or five decibels less than listening. B...

Many people think that wooden sleepers, like BPM and Xiao, belong to obsolete antiques and should have been put into the museum.At the sound of high-speed railway, after all, all the images in our mind are concrete sleepers, ballastless tracks and silvery white bullets.
