40. Showing the 60 and 90 Pound Sections arrive at practically the same results, so far as the wearing surface of the rail heads was concerned. The heads of these two rails were the outcome of a series of experiments and examinations of a large number of worn rail heads on the part of both men, and from these experiments and study, the two rails were designed. Some years later M. N. Forney designed the rail shown as No. 2. This rail has more bevel to the side of the head than either the "Chanut...e" or "Sayer" rails. The "Sayer" and "Forney" rails never became as popular as the "Chanute" rail, although there were some 10 or 12 different sections of 40 RAILWAY RAIL them made and used, but at the present time they are not in use to any great extent. Chanute said that at the time he designed the 60 pound rail (Fig. 39), for the Erie Railroad in 1874, there were in use on that road, 12 patterns of steel rail, 29 patterns of iron rail, and 96 different styles of joint fixtures and rail fastening devices.
