Аnnotation: The article describes the experience of operation of ballast-free track design with elastomer mats as elastic elements laid in tunnels No. 3A, No. 4 and No. 4A on the Gorky Railway. The levels of vibration acceleration during the passage of trains on the frame and on the tunnel lining have been determined for structures without elastic elements and two variants of elastomer mats. The purpose of the research was to assess the efficiency of the reduction of vibrations occurring during the passage of trains and transmitted to the tunnel lining.
