Abstract: The present invention contemplates a resilient pad mounted on the outside adjacent portion of a rail having sealing engagement with the rail along its base, the head and the interconnecting web of the rail with compression chambers located within the pad to permit the resiliency of the pad to cooperate with the movement of the rail in its vertical displacement as well as other movements imparted thereto by the passage of trains, thereover while maintaining a sealing contact with the rail to prevent water collecting along the rail and other foreign matter to minimize maintenance.
