Description

Pallets loaded with various used railroad detritus. The near pallet contained staggered rail joiners for connecting rail of different sizes. Also seen are stacks of turnout connector bars, turnout tie plates and various other bits and pieces of rail connectivity. The wye at the Centralia yard has become a clearing ground for various bits and pieces of freshly removed railroad hardware. Signal masts, crossing signals, switch motors, signal sheds to name a few.

I found one of these in a drainage culvert by a Norfolk Southern railroad crossing in Halifax back in 2013. However it was removed when they redid the drain. Say do you know how much one of these weigh on average?
