ABSTRACT:
The present invention is a third rail assembly that includes a beam made of synthetic material which will not crack upon exposure to the elements so that conductive material such as water, grease, or the like will not settle in the cracks. Also, the beam is lightweight for ease of installation and very strong so that the beam will not be destroyed when the third rail collector encounters an obstacle.
