Remarks & Notes 
Located in different sections throughout railway systems, rail joints provide room for expansion whenever necessary. To keep electrical continuity between the rail at the joint, a "bond wire" is welded to the head of the rail. Seen here made of "Cadmium Bronze" and although small in size, this wire plays a big role in railroad operations.
