Railway ground borne vibration is a major problem for high-speed and intercity trains. This problem causes many environmental as well as financial problems for railway companies. In the past decades, there have been numerous methods and strategies to avoid the excessive vibration from vehicles. Many of these methods have been tested and used in tracks and surrounding structures while others are still theories. This paper intends to discuss the current practice in railway vibration reduction and the effectiveness of each method for the different track, vehicle and structures. The methods are divided into three groups; in track, in the path and at the destination solutions. For each category, the results from state-of-the-art research and practice have been presented and conclusion on the appropriate methods and strategies for each case has been made.
