ABSTRACT A tie plate fastener system for connecting a pair of spaced rails to a tie includes a metallic channel tie of U-shaped cross section with legs opening downwardly and the base having at each end at least one pair of open- ings spaced from the edges of a rail base when in position on the tie.A pair of tie plates for each said rail is located on either side thereof. Each tie plate has forward edge portions lying adjacent the sides of the rail base and a central raised and elongated portion overlying the upper surface of the rail base. The tie plates are of the same width as the tie and of a length to be provided with openings therethrough in positions corresponding to the openings in the tie. A single fastening means extends through each pair of openings for securing the pair of tie plates, and thus its respective rail, to the tie. The tie plates and the single fastening means results in a more positive connect- ion of the rail to the tie and thus reduces rail spreading.
