A bill of switch tiesfor standard gauge single throw stub switches isgiven in Table No. 13, Appendix J, while TableNo. 14 gives a bill of switch ties for a narrow(three foot) gauge, single throw stub switch. Thetables and data so far given are for switches in astraight track. Where the main line is curved,special calculations are required for each case,and the solutions of such problems are given inthe work previously referred to. CONSTIiUCTING TIL 1CK. 307. Fig. 226.
