A railroad crossing is provided in which gage, transverse end, and outer field panels are joined by means of splines fitted into indentations on side surfaces of the panels whereby pairs of panels are joined together with a spline fitting partly into each side or end of adjoining panels; and lateral anchor members for fixing the panels adjacent to said rails, the end panels and the outer field panels whereby the need is obviated for affixing the panels to the ties by means of surface spikes.
