ABSTRACT:
Adhesively bonded rail joint which is quick to assemble and easy to dismantle and reassemble. The face of each joint bar of the rail joint has a layer of thermoplastic adhesive which upon moderate heating adheres strongly under moderate pressure to conforming surfaces of the rail ends. Because the thermoplastic adhesive does not cure, the joint bars are easily separated from the rails by reheating the adhesive and can be reapplied or used as part of a new rail joint.
