- 28 SWINNERTON ON PRACTICAL CONSIDERATIONS IN REGARD elastic or permanent lateral shift of the track sleepers. This is realized substantially in practice where steel trough or cast-iron pot sleepers are in use, or where wooden or concrete sleepers are sufficiently well bedded in the track ; when this is not the case, the calculated value of 2.1 tons per square inch may be a considerable underestimate. The Author is much indebted to ~ir W. E. Gelson, M.Sc. (Eng.), M.I.C.E...

- TO THE DESIGN O F FLAT-BOTTOMED RAIL TRACK. 51 the removal and reinsertion of the spikes when theplatesareturned and oiled. (2) That all elastic rail spikes be spun galvanized, to ensure that their life will be at least equal to that of the other track components. The elastic rail spikes are subjectedto high repetitive stresses and may fail by corrosion fatigue. Renewal could only be carried out a t high cost, whereas the galvanizing would add only 20 per cent. to the present cost. (3)That fishbolt holes in fishplates be drilled instead of punched...
