Jessop's iron rails were made in three foot (1m) to six foot (1.8m) lengths, there were side plates cast onto the rail through which bolts secured the rail to stone sleepers and the centre of the rail was of deeper section than the ends. This is called 'fish-belly' rail and it was used for a number of light wagonways from the 1780's.

The idea with ballasted track is that water is not allowed to accumulate in the ballast if it has good drainage. The idea with unballasted track is that the concrete redirects the water so that the ground immediately below it stays dry, achieving the same result.
