Abstract: The gauge and cess panels (3, 4) of a level crossing creep apart lengthwise of the track (1, 2) and need closing up again from time to time. A device (5, 24) for this consists of a member (8, 26) that engages under or over a rail (1) and has a portion (10, 27) extending transversely to the rail carrying a cam (6) or screw (28) for engaging the end of a panel (3, 4). When the cam or screw is turned, the reaction from the panel (3, 4) jams the member (8, 26) on the rail (1), and further turning forces the panel lengthwise of the track. Another device for gauge panels is a two armed toggle (29) with a cam (31) at its pivot (30), the arms (29) being in a shallow V with their free ends (32) braced against the insides of the rails (1).
