A railway switch gauge
A railway switch gauge 10 comprising a rigid elongate member 12, a railway switch engagement portion 14 projecting from the member underside 16 in a first direction orthogonal to the member longitudinal axis, and a rail abutment portion 18 projecting from the member underside in the first direction from a location at a predetermined spacing x from the railway switch engagement portion. Additionally, a gauge (100, figures 6-7) is disclosed having a rigid member (102) with first and second divergent arms (104, 106) having trailing (110) and leading (108) edges, the leading edge defining a plurality of steps (112). Furthermore, a gauge (200, figures 8-9) is disclosed having a rigid elongate member (202) with first and second ends (204, 206), a rail abutment portion (208) adjacent the first end, a crank pivot locator (210) for locating at predetermined positions between the abutment portion and the second end, the abutment portion defining a first abutment datum (212) for abutment with a stock rail upper surface and a second abutment datum (214) for abutment with a stock rail side surface when the first abutment datum contacts the stock rail upper surface.
