The 50kg rail is divided into middle and joint types by two types of rail gauge baffles, each is divided into number #14 and #20. For the 50kg/m rail, the #14 gauge baffle mounted on the B-type rail clip, the others are all installed with A type spring clip. 60kg/m rails use only one kind of gauge baffle, and it is divided into number #6 and #10, all installed with B-type rail clips.
The rail insulators are divided into 2-4, 0-6 two types.
Below is the detailed lists for all the parts of type I rail elastic clip fastening system used on one sleeper.
