Direction of derail throw.

(direction of throw is from the viewpoint of the oncoming locomotive or rail car.)

Derails need to be sized to fit your rails.

There are many sizes of rail found in railroad tracks. Hinged and retractable derails need to be carefully fitted to the height of your rail.

We need to know either the height of your rail abobve the tie ...

... or

the rail size and section which is stamped at intervals along the web of the rail.

The markings are a code which precisely identifies your rail.

Out of our four standard derail sizes, we will supply the one closest to your rail size. Installation of the derail may require notching into two ties to lower the derail or shimming the derail to bring it level with your rail. (For shimming we can supply pre-drilled steel shims at nominal cost.)
