<P mce_keep="true">In the 1940s and 1950s, what were all the components of track, specifically on the Western Maryland? I know ties, spikes, tie plates, rail, fish plates/joint bars and bolts, but were there other things like gauge bars, compression clips, and rail anchors, or are these only used on modern track? Also, what size rail and ties did the WM use then, and did they use 4 or 6 hole fish plates?</P>
