A base plate, which is made of plastic and is intended for supporting a rail for a rail vehicle on a substrate, may include a lower face, and an upper face on which a supporting surface for the rail is formed, a recess, from which a passage leads to the upper face of the base plate, being formed in the lower face of the base plate, the diameter of the recess in a direction transverse to the longitudinal axis of the passage being greater at least in part than the diameter of the passage, so that a stop for an insert piece fitted into the recess is formed on the top surface, assigned to the upper face of the base plate of the recess.

A plating system for attaching a pair of tie plates to a wooden railroad tie with screw spikes such that the tie plates are aligned and in gauge. A predrilling system is used to predrill holes in the appropriate position on the railroad tie according to the line end of the tie prior to loading the tie into the plating system. The plating system clamps the railroad tie in registration according to the line end of the tie, and holds the tie plates in the appropriate position while a pair of hydraulic screw-presses turn screw spikes to fasten the tie plates to the railroad tie in gauge, centered and aligned on the railroad tie.

A railroad fastening system that includes a see-thru (transparent or translucent) rail seat assembly which allows for immediate visual feedback to assess whether that a sufficient amount of adhesive material has been applied to a crosstie during the installation of a rail seat assembly on a crosstie to ensure a long-lasting bond and a proper cant, flatness and height of a rail seat assembly.

A fastening point for a rail on a foundation including a bedplate arranged on a support surface of the foundation. The bedplate includes a bearing surface formed on its underside associated with the foundation and also a through-opening, a spring element for exerting an elastic holding-down force on a rail foot and a clamping screw, which braces the spring element against the bedplate. The clamping screw is guided with its threaded shaft through the through-opening of the bedplate. The clamping screw acts with its screw head against the spring element and is screwed into a thread provided in a region of the through-opening of the bedplate. A free space is provided in a region underneath the bedplate in the extension of the through-opening of the bedplate, into which the threaded shaft of the clamping screw can be inserted.

A base plate includes a lateral support section and a lateral contact surface which delimits a supporting area formed on a top side of the base plate for a foot of a rail. A through-hole leading from the top side to the underside of the support section is formed into an edge area of the support section abutting the lateral contact surface. The through-hole has a basic shape which is angular in cross-section. The surface of the edge area meets with the contact surface in an upper marginal edge. A lateral surface of the through-hole assigned to the contact surface at least over a partial area of its height changes into an inclined surface which rises in the direction of the upper marginal edge of the contact surface and ends at the surface of the edge area.

An adjustable device for railway to cross active faults is provided to fix a rail and a sleeper, including: a fastener mounting base, disposed between the rail and sleeper; clamping pipes, disposed between the fastener mounting base and the sleeper, the sleeper is provided with a through groove, and the clamping pipes are detachably fixed inside the through groove; control parts, disposed on an inner wall of the clamping pipes, each of the control parts is configured to detect lateral pressures between the fastener mounting base and corresponding one of the clamping pipes, thereby to separate the corresponding one of the clamping pipes from the through groove, the device ensures that the rail will not produce bending deformations after the lateral dislocation of the bottom layer during earthquake events, and ensure that a train or rail repair vehicle can pass at a low speed after earthquake.
