My Dad needs to design a rail track over delicate pipes spanning 5 feet. What material and thickness would the rail need to be? Asked by Evan H - Wed Sep 10 01:03:37 2008 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments A. A two-rail track comprising two 6 inch @12.5 pound/foot steel I beams will give you a safety factor of about two based on a single, simply loaded, simply supported beam. Or use two 8@11.5 channels. (I got a Z of 7.5 using a 20,000psi allowable stress.) I would like confirmation as I have not done this for a long time.

It would be in the UK and would involve opening a heritage railway to the public all year round and would have a timetable similar to services on Network Rail. The idea would be to have not just heritage services running but also modern trains running and perhaps connecting to a Network Rail line at some point.

That is a description given to groups that support branch lines run by one of the conventional TOCs (See current edition of Railway Magazine for a full list). Apparently, also, you can't have a full CRP where freight trains are also involved I can only wish you a great deal of success with your project but must warn you that the idea, whilst most praiseworthy, is fraught with difficulty. For a start, you mention a possible connection to Network Rail - they would charge a great deal for that, and for freight coming off on to your line (look at the trouble it has taken the Swanage Railway to get a connection to Wareham and the West Somerset to Taunton despite the connections being… [cont.] Answered by rdenig_male - Sun Nov 11 18:03:33 2007 what is the best way to install plate rail over kitchen cabinets?
Q. i have the rail but would like to know the best way to fasten it to the false front without the brackets showing. it runs about 25 feet around that side of the kitchen and therefore needs to be cut which is no problem. the rail we purchased has no direction for installation and i would like it to look as professional as possible when i am done. thank you! Asked by phprods - Tue Sep 5 10:53:48 2006 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments A. Are you sure it is called "plate rail" ? Could it be Gallery Rail? (See Link below for Reference) If it is Gallery Rail, then it is usually nailed to the cabinet with small finish nails.
