Abstract

In a railway rail-fastening assembly 10 comprising at least one railway rail clip anchoring device for positioning adjacent to a flange of a railway rail 2, and at least one resilient railway rail clip 1 for installation in the railway rail clip anchoring device 5, the railway rail fastening clip 1 has an operative configuration in which a central portion 14 of the clip bears on the flange of the railway rail 2 and a longitudinal axis of the central portion 14 lies in a plane which is parallel, but not identical, to a plane containing longitudinal axes of outer legs 11, 17 of the clip. The railway rail clip anchoring device 5 provides passageways 53, for receiving the outer legs 11, 17 of the clip 1, which are shaped such that driving the clip 1 towards the rail 2 forces the outer legs 11, 17 downwardly with respect to the central portion 14, thereby at least partially deflecting the clip 1.
