A video produced by the Israeli Film Service in cooperation with Israel Railways. “So much for rattling; from now on: one continuous welded rail!” Israel Railways changes the tracks and the ties along the Haifa-Tel Aviv route. This short film follows all of the project’s stages, from the production of the concrete railroad ties at the “Yuval Gad” factory in Ashkelon through the welding of the new rails to form one continuous rail.
