What years did Brunswick make T rails for their tables?
1845 - 1945
There were some models of 'flat rail' tables as early as 1939 or '40, the 'Moderne' for example.
By 1945, the year of the Anniversary and Centennial, all were flat rail style
I believe.

So the flat rail are the same or different as T rails?
The T-Rails put the attach bolts into tension style situation, creating a stretching situation for the bolt & the side rail when applying the side load.
The flat rails put the bolts into a situation of lateral Shear, gaining from the load of the slates to assist the bolt(s) in compression to clamp a larger surface area.
I hope that helps...

Did other manufactures also use the t rail during that 100 year period?
Are there any advantages of the T-rail system?
