RT&S Virtual Conference: Crossties and Fasteners 2024
Event Info
The RT&S Crossties and Fasteners virtual event focuses on various topics around railroad crossties and fasteners. We discuss procurement, installation methods, pros and cons of timber ties and concrete ties, maintenance, wear, and special accessories such as rail pads, tie pads, and crossties on bridges, curved, and tangent track.
We also discuss tie fasteners, reviewing the various types, and which provide the most stability for timber and which for concrete. Installation and life of the asset will also be explored, including which types are preferred by Class I railroads and short lines.
