The paper is devoted to the analysis and comparison of the dynamic parameters of the rail fastening used in a standard way in the core railway network of the Czech Republic, i.e. the elastic rail fastening Vossloh W 14 and Pandrol FC. The paper also includes the description of the measurement and evaluation method. The conclusion of the paper is devoted to recommendations for further measurement and practical applications.

Keywords: rail fastening; signal analysis; impulse excitation; frequency response function
