Abstract: A rail switch point assist apparatus includes an elongated main member having an outward end removably and adjustably connected to the railroad track running rail and the inner end adjustably connected to a support member extending between a pair of ties. The inward end of the main member is vertically adjustable relative to the support member, and a pair of rollers are rotatably mounted between the inward end and the track running rail. The rollers are mounted on the main member to support a rail switch point moving towards and after from the track running rail. The outward end of the main member includes a bracket which is pivotally and slidably mounted to the main member so as to pivot about an axis transverse to the longitudinal axis of the main member and being slidable along the longitudinal axis of the main member.
