Monitoring device for monitoring a temporary rail connection of two rail portions of a rail and rail connection system having such a monitoring device
A monitoring device for monitoring a temporary rail connection of two rail portions includes a first fixing element which can be fixed to the first rail portion, and a second fixing element which can be fixed to the second rail portion. The monitoring device furthermore includes a first distance sensor for measuring a first distance between the fixing elements, and a second distance sensor for measuring a second distance between the first fixing element and a first clamping device of the temporary rail connection. The monitoring device allows reliable monitoring of the temporary rail connection. A rail connection system for creating and monitoring a temporary rail connection of two rail portions of a rail is also provided.

FISH PLATE CLAMP FOR UNLOADING RAILS
The invention refers to a fish plate clamp (10) for unloading rails (1), that comprises a support element (11, 12) that comprises a first piece (11) and a second piece (12) each one located on a face of the rail (1), characterized in that: each piece of the support element (11, 12) comprises an internal mortise (13) in the area of the web (3) of the rail (1), a gripping element (14) of the rail (1) located in an internal mortise (13) of the support element (11, 12),
where the internal mortises (13) comprise an inclined surface (15) in a manner that when the gripping element (14) moves along the length of the inclined surface (15) of the internal mortise (13) in the direction of the pull of the rail (1) the gripping element (14) latches onto the web (3) of the rail (1).
Bonded electrically insulated joint system for railway rails, method for fabricating such, method of modifying at least one starting type switch rail and use of two switch rails modified in accordance with said modifying method
A bonded, electrically insulated rail joint (IRJ) assembly for railways or subways is realized by machining two standard switch rails and subsequently coupling them by use of a lower bolted cover plate.
