Safety structure for a railway line
Safety structure for protecting a railway line consisting of a fencing which is supported on supports resting on the track bed. These supports are connected to a rail of a railway line which is present. The connection is effected by means of magnetic force. At their free ends, the supports are provided with permanent magnets having a shape such that they can be brought into engagement with the web of a rail. Due to the significant length of the supports, it is possible to apply a great torque to the magnets when the other end is engaged, that is to say that end which is turned away from the permanent magnets, as a result of which the magnet slides away along the web and can be detached therefrom. The magnet may consist of a number of magnets stacked on top of one another. The magnet is preferably arranged so as to be slightly displaceable with respect to the support to provide compensation for an unevensurface.
