Abstract: This paper has as main objective the development of a new type of composite rail sleeper, which satisfies the requirements of sustainability, efficiency and environmental protection requirements imposed by the modern tendency to apply the principles of sustainable development in all areas of life. In this regard it is proposed a Y shape from fibber-reinforced foamed urethane (FFU), that is completely recyclable, which makes the whole track working as a truss, with higher resistance to buckling than conventional track systems. In addition the Y sleeper has all the advantages of wood sleepers without their shortcomings.
