The former (30) is rotatably mounted on the base (12) to a plurality of predetermined positions, in each of which the former offers a different profile, whereby the former can engage a plurality of different rail sections. The former may comprise two identical former templates (30), each of which is rotatably mounted on the base to a plurality of predetermined positions. <IMAGE>
