ABSTRACT:
A resilient rail connection is adjustable laterally and as to height, especially for bridge and tunnel sections. An exchangeable intermediate plate and tie screws hold down the foot portion of the rail and are adapted to be screwed into a roadbed. The supporting plate supports the rail and is provided with laterally upwardly extending flanges. An elastic layer cast underneath the supporting plate rests in a recess of the roadbed. Supporting screws which extend through the flanges laterally support holding blocks, which have an oblong hole extending in a direction transverse to the rails. The holding blocks are connected to the roadbed by means of tie screws which extend through the oblong hole and the exchangeable intermediate plate as well as through the supporting plate and the elastic layer.
