Abstract
Abstract A railway track in which the track structure is supported by rigid supporting faces, through elastic layers consisting of an elastomer containing for the greater part finely dispersed gas cells, each of said elastic layers consisting at least partly of a moulded setting resin material, said material during setting forming a strong bond with both the track structure and the rigid supporting faces.
