Answer:
Small gaps which function as expansion joints are deliberately left between the rail ends to allow for expansion of the rails in hot weather.
.... Because of these small gaps , when train pass over jointed tracks they make a " clickety - clack" sound .

Answer:
The gap is left between the rails to provide a space for the iron metal to expand and contract during the summer and winter season due to the change in temperature. If the gap is not left in between then the rails will bend more and cause derailing of the trains
