ABSTRACT:
Before replacing an old tie with a new tie in a railroad track, the associated tie plates are temporarily welded to the respective rail bases of the two rails with the aid of an old rail spike. As soon as the new tie has been inserted under the track, rail spikes are driven in order to establish a final connection between the rail and the new tie, and the welded-on rail spikes are removed
