A sealing plate for use with a rail clip anchoring device having a head and a stem which extends from the head into a concrete sleeper when the anchoring device is in use, is adapted for extending over the underside of the head when the stem of the device is being set in a concrete sleeper, thereby to prevent ingress of concrete into the head of the device, and for being retained on the surface of the sleeper thereafter. A major face of the plate, which is uppermost when the sleeper is in use, is provided with at least one clip seat portion for receiving part of a rail clip. In a method of manufacturing a concrete sleeper with at least one embedded rail clip anchoring device, the floor of a mold, from which the sleeper is to be formed, is provided with an aperture through which the head of an anchoring device is inserted and before concrete is introduced into the mold the aperture is sealed off around its edges and around the underside of the head of the anchoring device by placing a sealing plate over the aperture on the floor of the mold, the plate overlapping and sealing around the edges of the aperture other than where the anchoring device is located and having a mating interface with the anchoring device such that a seal is formed therewith.

A rail pad is disclosed having two upstanding portions, integrally formed with the rail seat portion along opposite edges thereof, so as to extend along only a central part of the edge. Preferably, the upstanding portions are attached to the rail seat portion in such a manner as to be readily detachable therefrom.

A rail fastening apparatus fastens an inner stock rail in a railway slide chair assembly. The apparatus includes a base plate. The base plate has on one face a rail seat region on which the inner stock rail sits when the slide chair assembly is in use. A resilient rail fastening clip restrains the inner stock rail. A locating means locates the rail fastening clip in a first position. A loading means vertically deflects the clip so as to produce a load in a toe portion of the clip. A second locating means holds the rail fastening clip in a second position different from the first position such that the toe portion of the clip sits on a ramp of the loading means in a preload condition in which the clip does not bear on the rail

A shoulder for use in retaining a railway rail fastening clip, comprising two interconnected spaced-apart walls, between which a portion of the clip to be retained is held when the shoulder is in use, and clip-engaging means, supported by the walls, for engaging a portion of the clip to be retained, does not have any feature or surface which engages the surface of that clip portion which faces downwardly when the clip is in use. Alternatively, or in addition, none of the contact regions, at which the device engages the rail clip, can be seen when the anchoring device is viewed from above when in its operative orientation and all of the contact regions can be seen when the anchoring device is viewed from below when in the operative orientation. Alternatively, or in addition, all the contact regions lie substantially at the same horizontal distance from the edge of the rail foot when measured perpendicularly to the axis of the rail and in the plane of the rail foot.

A rail fastening apparatus for fastening an inner stock rail (2) in a railway slide chair assembly comprises a baseplate (100) having on one face thereof a rail seat region (110) on which the inner stock rail (2) sits when the slide chair assembly is in use, a resilient rail fastening clip (7) for restraining such an inner stock rail (2), the clip (7) comprising an elongate member having at one end a toe portion (71) for bearing on the rail (2), locating means (101, 102) for locating the rail fastening clip (7), which locating means (101, 102) are positioned on the baseplate (100) in a second region (120) spaced from the rail seat region (110), the clip (7) having at its other end a heel portion (72) for engaging the locating, means (101, 102), and the locating means (101, 102) comprising an abutment portion (101a) against which the heel portion (72) of the clip (7) abuts when the apparatus is in use to inhibit withdrawal of the clip (7) from the rail (2), and loading means (9) for vertically deflecting the clip (7) so as to produce a load in the toe portion (71). The abutment portion (101a) of the locating means (101, 102) comprises a wall (101a) of a recess (101) provided on the face of the baseplate (100) and the loading means (9) comprise a ramp (9) provided adjacent to the rail seat region (110), whereby the clip (7) can be installed in the apparatus by hammer-driving the heel portion (72) of the clip (7) towards the rail seat region (110) until the toe portion (71) slides up the ramp (9) onto the rail (2) and the heel portion (72) drops into the said recess (101).

A railway baseplate assembly comprising a baseplate (30), a cushioning pad (20) for lying beneath the baseplate (30), and means (10) for securing the baseplate (30) to an underlying rail foundation when the assembly is in use, wherein the said securing means (10) comprise a non-screw-threaded post member (12), which post member (12) extends, when in use, through holes (21, 31) provided in the baseplate (30) and cushioning pad (20) in such a way as to engage the said baseplate (30). The post member (12) and baseplate (30) may be such that engagement of the baseplate (30) with the post member (12) can be brought about by movement of the baseplate (30) relative to the post member (12) firstly in a direction substantially perpendicular to the plane of the baseplate (30) and towards the post member (12) so that the post member (12) extends through the hole (31) in the baseplate (30) and secondly in a direction substantially parallel to the plane of the baseplate so that the post member (12) engages the baseplate (30). The post member (12) is fastened, directly or indirectly, to the rail foundation and the post member (12), cushioning pad (20) and baseplate (30) may be such that the cushioning pad (20) and baseplate (30) can be brought into engagement with the post member (12) while the post member (12) is fastened to the rail foundation.
