Abstract The rolling of a rigid body along a deformable elastic rail lying on a viscoelastic foundation is studied. Earlier [1, 2], the approximate Bernoulli-Euler theory has been used to construct the model of this system. In the present paper, we utilize Timoshenko's theory of beam bending. In the kinetic energy functional, we take into account the inertial properties of cross-sections of the beam. The dissipative forces are accounted for in accordance with Rayleigh's theory. Constraints, treated as ideal constraints, are analyzed. The Hamilton principle is utilized to derive the equations of motion. The constraint forces determined quantitatively characterize the physical properties of the process, such as the appearance of additional shear forces in the beam's cross-sections and the reaction in the place of contact, including the rolling resistance torque. The creep phenomenon has been identified for transverse deformations. New values of the critical velocities are determined and a modified equation of the rail neutral axis was found for the case of steady rolling of the wheel.
