The evolution of the structure and the defective substructure of rail steel under uniaxial compression up to 50% has been analyzed. It was revealed that the strain hardening had a multi-stage nature and was accompanied by the fragmentation of pearlite grains, which increased with increasing strain. An increase in the degree of deformation is accompanied by a decrease in the scalar and excess density of dislocations. The destruction of cementite plates proceeding through the mechanisms of their dissolution and cutting by mobile dislocations was discovered.
