Track inlaid in concrete question?

[Chuck]

It depends on what is at the end of the track and how much usage the spur track gets. If there is a building or a road/situation where a runaway car would cause damage or be a safety issue at the end of the track, then a Hayes bumper would be put in place. If there is nothing at the end of the track except a field, or nothing that could be damaged, then wheel stops would work. I have seen tracks on a long spur that have meandered off into weeds in the Detroit area. The used portion of the spur was near the main and the rest of the spur went a bit of a distance before being lost in the weeds. I am sure there are rules and reasons for the placement of bumpers and wheel stops. Hope this helps!
