Rail gauges for Melbourne, made in Newcastle

Track, flangeway, check and profile gauges for Melbourne's broad gauge and standard gauge track, including custom gauges, made in Newcastle NSW.

Victoria’s rail network runs on more than one gauge, so maintenance crews need tools set to the right track. We make rail gauges in our Newcastle, NSW workshop and supply them to rail projects and maintenance teams in Melbourne and across Victoria.

Gauges for every Victorian track gauge

  • Broad gauge (1600 mm): Melbourne’s suburban network and much of regional Victoria
  • Standard gauge (1435 mm): interstate and some regional lines, and Melbourne’s tram network
  • Custom settings: dual gauge sections, sidings and non-standard track

Because we machine our gauges in-house, we can set them to the gauge, rail section and tolerance your work needs rather than offering one fixed size.

Our rail gauge range

Track gauges

Confirm the distance between the running rails during construction, resleepering and routine inspection.

Flangeway and check gauges

Check flangeway widths and check rail clearances at turnouts, crossings and level crossings. On street-running tram track with grooved rail, flangeway checks are part of everyday maintenance.

Rail profile gauges

Measure railhead wear and shape so you can plan grinding or replacement before wear affects performance.

Custom gauges

We design and make gauges for unusual rail sections, turnouts, heritage lines and combined checks, so a crew can take one tool instead of several.

Accuracy you can document

We machine every gauge from certified materials on CNC equipment, and each can be supplied with a traceable calibration certificate for your inspection records. See our gauges page for the full range, including machining gauges.
