In 2023, British rail researchers tested crushed old glass in place of scarce rail sand; it gave trains comparable grip and caused similar rail wear in wet and leaf-covered tests
British railway workers are dealing with slippery tracks due to fallen leaves and an ongoing sand shortage. Researchers are exploring crushed recycled glass as an alternative to traditional sanding materials. Initial tests show that recycled glass offers similar traction and rail wear as sand. However, further real-world evaluations are needed to confirm its effectiveness and economic viability. This innovative approach could help lessen reliance on rapidly diminishing natural sand resources.
