  2. Minimum railway curve radius - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minimum_railway_curve_radius

    Extra heavy concrete sleepers [10] 87.8 m (288 ft 11 ⁄ 16 in) North American rail network: 1,435 mm (4 ft 8 + 1 ⁄ 2 in) Absolute minimum radius; not on lines for general service 85 m (279 ft) Windberg Railway (de:Windbergbahn) 1,435 mm (4 ft 8 + 1 ⁄ 2 in) (between Freital-Birkigt and Dresden-Gittersee) - restrictions to wheelbase 80 m ...

  3. Rail profile - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rail_profile

    Height of rail equaled width of foot for each ASCE tee-rail weight; and the profiles specified fixed proportion of weight in head, web and foot of 42%, 21% and 37%, respectively. ASCE 90 lb/yd (44.6 kg/m) profile was adequate; but heavier weights were less satisfactory.

  4. Railway track - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Railway_track

    A sleeper (tie or crosstie) is a rectangular object on which the rails are supported and fixed. The sleeper has two main roles: to transfer the loads from the rails to the track ballast and the ground underneath, and to hold the rails to the correct width apart (to maintain the rail gauge). They are generally laid transversely to the rails.

  5. Railway platform height - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Railway_platform_height

    The electric DART fleet has carriage floors at 1,067 mm (42.0 in) above top of rail creating a step of 152 mm (6.0 in) , while the diesel fleet is typically one step (150 to 200 mm or 5.9 to 7.9 in) higher than the platform. On Dublin's Luas tram system, platforms are approximately 280 mm (11 in) above rail. Tram floors are at the same height ...

  6. Structure gauge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structure_gauge

    It specifies the height and width of station platforms, tunnels and bridges, and the width of the doors that allow access to a warehouse from a rail siding. Specifications may include the minimum distance from rail vehicles to railway platforms , buildings, lineside electrical equipment cabinets, signalling equipment, third rails or supports ...

  7. Clearance (civil engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clearance_(civil_engineering)

    In civil engineering, clearance refers to the difference between the loading gauge and the structure gauge in the case of railroad cars or trams, or the difference between the size of any vehicle and the width/height of doors, the width/height of an overpass or the diameter of a tunnel as well as the air draft under a bridge, the width of a lock or diameter of a tunnel in the case of watercraft.

  8. Ballastless track - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ballastless_track

    While numbers vary depending on construction type and track infrastructure (ballastless tracks are generally more suitable to infrastructures that are also made of concrete, as is the case in tunnels or on viaducts), the Deutsche Bahn estimated in 2015 that construction costs of ballastless tracks are in many cases 28 percent higher than those ...

  9. Loading gauge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loading_gauge

    The maximum height, width, and length of general Chinese rolling stock are 4,800 mm (15 ft 9 in), 3,400 mm (11 ft 2 in) and 26 m (85 ft 4 in) respectively, with an extra out-of-gauge load allowance of height and width 5,300 by 4,450 mm (17 ft 5 in by 14 ft 7 in) with some special shape limitation, corresponding to a structure gauge of 5,500 by ...
