This process is also in opera- .- ' tion on the Grand Trunk at Belleville` and London and the result is `a saving to; 1 the railway of more than $500,000 a year. ' The story of this rail sawing is an interest- ing one. The rail used by th_e Canadian i and United States railways has gradually` increased in weight from the standard of '0 [ forty years -ago..~fifty-six pounds to the l yard, until today railways are using a rail .. ' of one hundred pounds to the yard. and?` to a limited extent even heavier. Due to ii the fact that all rail, both light and heavy, 5 is affected -by the change of temperature, is sections must be laid with a space between 5; V the ends.to allow for expansion and co_ntrac- if tion. This space introduces a hammer-blow l on the end of the rail when the wheels pass over it and results in the pounding`; down of the ends of the rails, so that, if whilethe remainder of the rail may be to! all practical purposes unworn, the end of I the rail. and fo some inches back of it,i is rendered unfi for use.
