Railroad spikes are pounded into the railroad ties and the head of the spike catches the side of the rail. As well, the rail-tie combination is held in place by ballast, consisting of gravel, crushed stone or aggregate on a well packed road bed. .
No, it does not.
Yes, water can pass easily through gravel because of the large pore spaces between the gravel particles. This allows water to flow through the gravel layer without much resistance.
No, gravel and conductor are not the same. Gravel is a loose aggregation of small rock fragments, while a conductor is a material that allows the flow of electricity.
The weight of a load of gravel can vary depending on the type and size of the gravel, as well as the amount being transported. Generally, a cubic yard of gravel weighs between 2,400 to 2,900 pounds. It's best to check with the supplier for specific weight information.

You mine gravel, sometimes flint is dropped when you break a block of gravel.
The gravel under and around the ties is called ballast.
Flint is sometimes dropped when you mine gravel.
Steel rails laid and pinned down on ties embedded in gravel so that trains may run on them.
The "gravel" under the railroad ties is called Ballast and forms the railbed itself. The reason that you dont see ballast under some railsets is because the railroad company has deferring the maintenance on the railbed and grass and vegaetation has grown in between the railroad ties and hides the ballast. A railroad company must spray vegetation killer to maintain the railbed properly. Some railroad companies,usually because of lack-of-money put off maintaining the railbed until the vegetaion has completely obscured the ballast.
the sand, gravel, boulders, or other debris transported by rolling or sliding along the bot-tom of a stream.
Known as ballast, it provides a stable surface for the ties, holds them in place and allows water to run off.
Using 700c wheels on a gravel bike offers advantages such as better rolling efficiency, smoother ride over rough terrain, and compatibility with a wide range of tire options for various riding conditions.
Tubeless tires on a gravel bike offer benefits such as reduced risk of flats, improved traction, lower rolling resistance, and the ability to run lower tire pressures for a smoother ride over rough terrain.

A Ghandi Dancer was the name given to a railroad laborer who "tamped" ties during installation of a railroad. To "tamp" ties, the worker used a special flat-nosed shovel and packed the ballast (often gravel) tightly under and around the railroad ties. His continuous up and down motion made him look like a dancer.
