TRB's Transit Cooperative Research Program (TCRP) Report 71, volume 3: Track-Related Research Volume 3: Exothermic Welding of Heavy Electrical Cables to Rail -- Applicability of AREMA Track Recommended Practices for Transit Agencies evaluates current practices and possible improvements to methods of connecting heavy electrical cables to rail, and identifies areas where American Railway Engineering and Maintenance-of-Way Association (AREMA) recommended practices may not apply to transit operations. The report also identifies transit practices and components that are not addressed by AREMA recommended practices.
