That's helpful, and your mention of 'chairs' is particularly timely. I was just over at the www.gaugeone.org site browsing about when I noticed in the photo gallery there, a track setup using tie plates that appear to slide onto the end of the rail--and having sort of a yoke or 'C' shape that the rail base slides into. I've not seen anything like it, but it sure seems like a cool idea--even if not prototypical for the US. Maybe these are the same as the 'chairs' you mention.
