Most European railways also now use concrete bearers in switches and crossing layouts due to the longer life and lower cost of concrete bearers compared to timber, which is increasingly difficult and expensive to source in sufficient quantities and quality. If you’re in the market for a cross tie for your horse, you may wonder which type is right for you. There are several different types of cross ties available, each with its own advantages and disadvantages. Which kind of cross-tie is best for your needs depends on the situation and your preferences. Let’s take a closer look at each type.

Cross tie straps are usually made of nylon or polyester, but I have seen them made from all kinds of materials, including chains, bungee, and leather. The material should have a little give or be attached to something flexible.

If I have a horse that has difficulty tolerating a procedure I much prefer to hold a horse on a lead rope than to tie it up. Through the feel of the lead rope I can interact with it every second and guide it to change its thought and help it relax and find calmness. Cross-ties hinder my ability to do that. The standard cross tie is the most common type. It consists of two ropes or chains attached to either side of facing walls or two posts with a snap on the end.Crossties.

Sleepers are 8ft 6in (2.59m) long, 10 inches (254mm) wide and 5 inches (127mm) deep. The two sleepers adjacent to a joint may be 12 inches (305mm) wide where the formation is soft or the traffic is heavy and fast. Sleepers are mostly spaced 2ft 7in (0.79m) apart (centre-to-centre) but are closer adjacent to fishplated rail joints where the spacing sequences are as follows with the spacing at the fishplate highlighted.

Historically, steel ties have suffered from poor design and increased traffic loads over their normally long service life. These aged and often obsolete designs limited load and speed capacity but can still be found in many locations globally and performing adequately despite decades of service. There are great numbers of steel ties with over 50 years of service and in some cases they can and have been rehabilitated and continue to perform well. Steel ties were also used in specialty situations, such as the Hejaz Railway in the Arabian Peninsula where the dry, hot climate made wood ties unsatisfactory.
