track dimensions

Posted by Anonymous

I am student studying mechanical engineering at Leeds university, England, I’m doing a project on the stresses in rail tracks and what causes them to fracture. Im sure there must be standard dimensions and materials used for the rails, pins etc but i’m unable to find them anywhere. If anyone could suggest a source where I could find this information it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you
