RAILWAY RAIL FASTENING CLIP AND INSULATOR
A railway rail fastening clip (1) for fastening a railway rail to an underlying rail foundation, which clip (1) being formed of an elongate plate shaped such that a central region (11) of the plate has in profile the form of a letter C, a first end region of the plate extends from one side of the central region (11) of the plate to form a substantially planar base portion (12) of the clip for engaging a rail fastening anchoring device secured to the rail foundation and a second end region of the plate extends from the opposite side of the central region (11) of the plate to form a toe portion (13) of the clip for bearing on a foot of the railway rail, such that in profile the second end region extends further than the first end region, wherein the toe portion of the clip is provided with a throughhole (14) which is arranged such that, when the clip is installed, part or all of the throughhole (14) lies above the foot of the rail, the throughhole being configured to receive a corresponding spigot (25) of a toe insulator (2) for electrically insulating the clip from the rail whereby the insulator can be retained on the toe portion of the clip.
