The accompanyitig engraving represents a railway tie made of metal to insure cheapness and durability and provided with means for securing the rails so as to allow the removal of one or more ties from the road bed and their renewal without disturbing either the rolled into the U-form shown in Fig. I and made GLYNN'S METALLIC RAILWAY TIE. with flanges on its edges extending outward so as to give a broad bearing; the flanges also prevent by the weight of the ballast on them any rising or springing of the tie. Upon the upper side of the tie are ribs formed to lap upon the flanges of the rail so as to hold the latter securely down to place. The rail flanges are notched so that the rail can be set down upon the tie the rib fastenings passing through the notches when by an endwise movement of the rail the fasten ings will be locked over the solid portion of the rail flanges. In Fig. 2 the tie is in the form of an inverted T with the web slotted to receive the rail flanges in the same manner as above described. In Fig. 3 the tie has hook shaped fingers between which the rail is placed. In this case the fastening devices are lo cated so as to adapt the tie for use as a longitudinal sleeper but they may be applied to cross ties. In order to remove a tie it is only necessary to remove the ballast for a short distance and then shift the tie sidewise until the fastenings are over the notches in the drawn out endwise; a new tie can then be inserted. This invention has been patented by Mr. M. A. Glynn whose address is care of Messrs. J. C. Burnham & Co. Havana Cuba. 1 AN IMPROVED CORNICE GUTTER.
