It was a new football term to me. I thought it was going to be dirty.

 

While investigating BGIM's 5th Round pick on his Signature line (hey, I'm a robot--I do this stuff all the time--even while you sleep), it said that Derek Morris OT had 4 "Raleigh Rails" in one game. Source

 

After some train references (all derailments), I found this:

"One area where [NC State sophomore guard] Harris has excelled is as a conductor of the "Raleigh Rail." A phrase coined by offensive line coach Mike Barry, the rail is when an offensive lineman drives the defender more than five yards past the line of scrimmage."

Now you know.
