This paper uses the long-span steel truss slab track as its research subject to analyze the new type of sleeper slab track structure with an experimental method. Firstly, a full-scale model was established in the laboratory to form a “rail–sleeper slab–self-compacting concrete cushion–steel beam” composite structure, and a fatigue test was performed on the track structure. The cyclic load was set up as a sine form with a range between 75 and 375 kN at a 5 Hz interval and 3 × 106 cycles. Based on the test, the performance of the track structure under cyclic train load was studied. Secondly, after every 106 loading cycles, the vertical static loading test and horizontal resistance test of the track structure were carried out to obtain the strain and displacement under different loading cycles. Finally, after 3 × 106 cycles of sine cyclic loading, the horizontal ultimate resistance test of the track structure was carried out to study its horizontal failure mode. The aims of this paper were to verify the applicability of the sleeper slab track, identify the mechanical properties, and determine the unfavorable position. The findings can provide an important reference for the practical use of the sleeper slab track structure.
