Abstract

A rail pad that is formed from elastomeric material has an upper face adapted to underlie a lower face of a rail. The lower face is adapted to overlie a concrete rail foundation member. The elastomeric rail pad generally has a rectangular plan configuration. The elastomeric pad includes a reinforcement member, which is generally parallel to its mean plane and which extends at least between dispositions associated with generally opposing comers of the generally rectangular pad. The reinforcing member has a tensile strength sufficient to resist forces from traffic passing across the rail, which tend to stretch the pad in the mean plane.
