Serial No. 490,751.
My invention relates more particularly to switch point-rails of the type comprising a point-frail proper recessed at its pointed .extremity and a separate wear-resisting pointsection removably secured in said recess.
In present railway construction the pointrails of switches are subjected to great wear at the pointed extremities thereof, the remainder of the point-rail remaining in good condition.
It is thus desirable `to .provide a point rail of such construction that when such wear of its pointed extremity occurs as to render it unfit for further use, the rail may be reconditioned for service and thereby avoid the scrapping of the rail which, as above stated, reina-ins as to its greater part in good serviceable condition.
@ne of my objects is to provide a construction of point rail ofthe type above referred to, whereby its removable point section may be readily and quickly applied to and removedfrom operative position on the pointrail proper and another point section substituted therefor at will and without removing the point rail from the track.
Another object is to provide an economical construction 4of point-rail of the type referred to which shall not require any welding operation, and-the point portion of which will withstand the jarring action to which it is subjected in use from either side Yof the rail without shifting on the point-rail proper.
Another object is to provide a point-rail of such construction vthat ,the lateral forces to which the 4pointed extremity of the rail is subjected in use will 'be resisted in such a way as to lessen shock to such pointed eX- tremity.
Another Vobject is to minimize danger of crackingof the point rail proper at its recessed'portion; and other Vobjects as will be manifest fronrthe `following description.

Referring `to Figs. l to 9 inclusive, the structure therein shown comprises a pointrail 14 represented in switching position relative-to an adjacent main rail 15.
i The point-rail'rrlt, which istapered toward one end iny accordance with coniinon prae-V j tice, is formed-'of Va point-rail proper 16 re- "v In 'fthe-:construction nowbeing cessed alongthe upper surface of its pointed extremity as represented at 17, thisfrecess extending downwardly into theweb 18 of therpoint-rail proper andfits end wallr beingV preferably vcurved as represented at 19. The point-rail also comprises la` point-Y forining section 20 separate frein the pointrail proper 16 and preferably constructed of l' metal highly resistant to the forces to which the point portions of point rails are suba jected.' By way' ofexanipiethe point-secetion 20 in use, may be Va steellforgingf heat treated to harden it.

Y Y Y @The body-portion v21 is provided-,at its rear end with a bar 25Vforining a continuation of one ofthe flanges 24,' the bar 25, in the'assernbling of the pointfsection f 2O with the pointrailproper, eX ending intotlie spaceat one side of the point-*rail*- proper dei/ined byY the headfweb and'fiange of the pointrail1 n Y together the various fiatwise-opposed porproper as shown'particularly in Fig.v 6;" Y lnjtheconstruction now. being described `inefans are 'provided for Y reinforcing the Y point-section 2OV against lateral displace inentytheseineans comprising metal bar l 26 which extendsinto thespace attlie` sideV of the pointrail Yproper ,opposite thatinto which the bar 25 extends and defined by the i head, web and flange of the point-rail proper.
