Abstract: A rail assembly for rail vehicles having flanged wheels, in particular in the area of track covers and track crossings, as well as a profiled filling element therefor. The rail assembly (1) comprises a support structure (7) for a cover (9) which covers the space (8) directly alongside the rail (2), the cover (9) acting as a guide rail and being easy to remove from the support structure (7). Also disclosed is a profiled filling element (200, 220) particularly suitable for the rail assembly (1).

Abstract: Deposit transaction data associated with a check deposited at an automated teller machine (ATM) is processed to determine if the deposited check is acceptable. Deposit transaction data relating to the deposited check is received from an ATM switch. A determination is made as to whether the deposited check is acceptable based upon the transaction data. A flag is set and a risk score is assigned when the deposited check is determined to be unacceptable. A second source file is created using set flags and assigned risk scores, and then sent to a data server. The second source tile is merged with associated deposit data retrieved from memory at the data server. The merged file is sent to a deposit review processor and a deposit review workstation. The deposit review processor determines if any deposited item needs to be reviewed by a human operator or outsorted based upon data contained in the merged file.

Abstract: A railway crossing structure for a railway track including an elastomeric gauge insert (50) fitting between each rail (10) and the adjacent gauge panel (12). Elastomeric gauge insert (50) has a body portion (70) formed by upper and outer sides (72, 74) separated by an elasticity cavity (76) and joined to each other at juncture (78) defining an outer sealing surface (80). Hinge lines formed by notches (82, 84) in sides (72, 74) assist in the folding or flexing of body portion (70) as shown in FIG. 6 during installation of gauge insert (50) by a pushing force exerted against upper surface (62) of body (52). Body portion (70) snaps beneath head (16) of rail (10) upon the seating of gauge insert (50) with leg (54) engaging arcuate connecting surface (36) of base (18) as shown in FIG. 3. Sealing surface (80) of body portion (70) seals against undersurface (30) along a relatively large sealing area and a relatively large sealing force is provided by compressed sides (72, 74).

Abstract: An insert for use in a level railway crossing includes an elongated high molecular weight body defined by a generally trapezoidal head with one planar vertical side edge, a shoulder extending outwardly and downwardly from the other side edge of the head for bearing against the bottom of one side of the head of a rail, a bottom portion for extending downwardly into engagement with the top surface of the base of the rail at the junction between such top surface and the vertical web of the rail, and circular cross section seals in longitudinally extending rectangular grooves in the one side edge of the head and in the inclined top surface of the shoulder for sealing with an adjacent plank and with the rail. The insert restricts the entry of the water and other foreign matter into the area of the bottom of the rails.
