Accurate diagnostics of the railway track axis are crucial for enabling higher operational speeds of rail vehicles. Consequently, assessment methods are under continuous refinement. The precision of mobile GNSS-based measurements is influenced by external factors such as terrain obstructions and satellite geometry. This study presents an innovative approach that continuously monitors a predefined multi-receiver GNSS configuration in real time to enhance positioning accuracy. Field experiments on operational railway lines demonstrate that the proposed method significantly improves measurement reliability and reduces uncertainty compared to the conventional CQ-based quality assessment. The algorithm underlying the proposed method is formulated through analytical equations, allowing it to be implemented in any programming environment. The method&rsquo:s effectiveness is demonstrated by comparing the expanded uncertainty calculated using GNSS-provided data with that obtained through the proposed approach.
