UER Forum > UE Encyclopedia > Third Rail (Viewed 5934 times) Entry: Third Rail originally posted by DaaDeeOh [last edit 11/2/2016 3:46 PM by Archer - edited 7 times] The power rail for mass transit systems; may also be known as a traction power rail. Normally runs adjacent to the running rails. Very deadly. May be under a cover board for protection. Assume live at all times, and avoid. Many run at either 600 or 750 volts DC in the US/Can. Some systems also have a fourth rail, such as the London Underground. Avoid it as well!
