I believe it's also louder, with a worse ride.
- moooo99 3y agoAt least anecdotally I can say worse ride performance is not true. Lower noise emission is hard to tell as a passenger, but seems to to be the consensus in the literature I found. Thats probably among the reasons these tracks are usually only installed on stretches not running through any towns/cities.
- namibj 3y agoNah, just use noise absorber instead of bare flat concrete; e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Escher_Stra%C3%9Fe_station https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Escher_Stra%C3%9Fe_station shows some tactics for silencing ballast less track (not in the wiki article itself, sadly).
