QUOTE: Originally posted by Michael G. Buettner Anybody out there know why the term "frog" is used for that part of the railroad track which allows passage of the wheels across another? Webster seems to indicate that the words "frog" and "jump" have common roots, but perhaps there is a connection in word usage to the type of frog that has to do with certain fastening devices and their shapes and functions (again see Webster).
