Practical Notes
Light rails are designated by their mass per unit length (kg/m).
Ensure proper matching of fishplates with the specific kg/m designation of the light rail profile.
Always check for straightness and acceptable rolling tolerances (Table 2) prior to track laying to avoid derailment of industrial trolleys.
