Track Clearance Marker Exposed Raiil

Track Clearance Marker Exposed Raiil

On a spur track, rail cars which are parked too close to a switch can cause dangerous clearance problems for trains passing on the adjacent track. This situation is known as “fouling the track.”

Aldon’s permanent, highly visible, and all-weather TRACK CLEARANCE MARKER tells switching crews how far they can shove or park a car without "fouling" the converging tracks.

FEATURES • Stands up to temperature extremes of -50°F to +140°F. Nine Lives springs back every time. • Low-profile, stands 10” above tie. • Base of Marker bolts to tie. • Use to comply with Federal Regulation 49 CFR part 218.101 Note: Constant exposure to sunlight will not affect the physical properties of urethane except that there may be some color alteration over time. The marker will still remain a highly visible object in the middle of the track, especially in snow. Recommended Installation for Track Clearance Marker Track clearance markers should be installed on both tracks converging on a switch. Markers should be placed 50 feet from points measuring 13 feet on-center to the adjacent track. Please consult with your local railroad when installing track clearance markers.

Clearance Markers are also useful in marking parking limits at rail loading docks.
