The invention provides a method of cooling a rail weld zone. The method includes a first rail web portion cooling process of cooling a rail web portion cooling region of the rail weld zone in a part of a temperature range until the completion of transformation from austenite to pearlite, a second rail web portion cooling process of cooling the rail web portion cooling region after the entire rail web portion of the rail weld zone is transformed to pearlite, a foot portion cooling process of cooling a foot portion of the rail weld zone, and a head portion cooling process of cooling a head portion of the rail weld zone. When cooling time of the first and second rail web portion cooling processes is t minute, a k value satisfies an expression represented as −0.1t+0.63≦k≦−0.1t+2.33.

High-strength bainitic steel rails have improved resistances to surface fatigue failures and wear required of the head of rails for heavy-load service railroads. The high-strength bainitic steels rails having excellent resistances to surface fatigue failures and wear contain constituents of specific ranges and consisting of bainitic structures at least in part are characterized in that the total area occupied by carbides whose longer axes are 100 to 1000 nm in a given cross section of said bainitic structures accounts for 10 to 50 percent thereof.
