Those small metal plates designed to be fitted into a slot rebated into
the back of something. The plate has a hole and a slot machined in it to
allow you to hook it over a protruding screw head as a concealed fixing?

I am sure I have seen somewhere selling them, but can think of what to
search for!

Keyhole plate or keyhole hanger for the recessed ones, mirror plate for
the other sort.

Fishplate?

To people who know nothing, anything is possible.
To people who know too much, it is a sad fact
that they know how little is really possible -
and how hard it is to achieve it.

Fishplate?

No, fish as in fissure or gap. Famously the plates that secure railway
lines together, I mean you couldn't possibly continuously weld them
together because they need gaps to expand...

Then look at the expansion joints every kilometre or so, which permit a
few centimetres of movement. The rails are laid under varying tension
depending on what the ambient temperature is when they're laid, too.

Not quite - the thing I have in mind is all in a vertical line, with the
retaining screw holes at top and bottom.

Nothing like whats seen with fishplates.

And ours, on the system that carrys by far the biggest freight
trains in the entire world, with as big a temperature range as
is seen anywhere, don't even have those.

The rails are laid under varying tension depending on what the ambient
temperature is when they're laid, too.

Sure, but clearly continuously welded rail is very viable indeed in spite of
his claim.
