Cattle guards on the G.T.R.

The standard surface slat cattle guard in use on the G.T.R. was briefly described in our last issue. A section and plan are given on this page. The material required for a single track guard is as follows: 4 oak sills 5'0"×6"×1 1/2"; 2 oak sills 4'6"×6"×1 1/2"; 32 oak slats 8'0" at bottom edge and 7'4" at top edge ×4 1/2"×1 1/4" dressed ; 64 bocks as per small plan given herewith. The slats are set on edge on the sills & kept in position by the blocks.
