Use Google and enter "rail lubricator" or "rail lubrication". You will find quite a bit of useful information.

From what I know of British practice the flange lubricators are usually track mounted near to where they are needed. In normal running on good track the flange shouldn't touch the rail. There is an excellent British Rail (as it was then) showing this.
