Definitions
- the present invention relates to railroad track maintenance, and more particularly to improvements in ballast tamping.
- FIG. 1 is a side view, partly in section, of a track tamper embodying tamping tool assemblies mounted according to the invention
- FIG. 2 illustrates, in an enlarged view, the coupling of the two assemblies shown in FIG. 1
- a grade and/orv aligned track section is fixed in position by tamping the ties in the corrected track section.
- Useful tamping tool assemblies for this purpose have been disclosed and claimed in our U.S. Patent No. 2,876,709, for instance, and assemblies of this type are illustrated herein by way of example.
