Abstract: A bolted rail fastening system for joint bar locations includes a rail mounted in a recessed area of a tie plate with the tie plate being secured to a cross-tie by means of coach screws extending downwardly therethrough. The rail is maintained in the recessed area by a pair of clips positioned at each side of the rail which each engage an upper surface of a joint bar, one joint bar positioned on each side of the rail. Rail connections may thus be secured to the cross-tie there underneath.
Abstract: In a device for mounting in position guide rails (1), in which device the guide rail (1) is free of perforations and is seized by claws (3), which claws (3) are fixed in a mounting part, the mounting part has a mounting plate (2) extending in parallel relation to the longitudinal direction of the guide rail, noting that the claws (3) can be passed through perforations (16) in the mounting plate and can be braced against the mounting plate (2), in particular with the interposition of a spring (4), at the side, located opposite the guide rail (1), of the mounting plate (2).
