As demonstrated in the photographs above, our reclaimed sleepers are of the highest quality. Having spent decades under the tracks of various railway lines across Europe, these sleepers are authentic and full of character. Unlike our new oak railway sleepers, please be aware that our reclaimed railway sleepers will show signs of ageing, with minor splits and shakes.

Reclaimed Railway Sleepers Sizes

Due to the nature of these reclaimed sleepers, no two sleepers are identical, however they will all be similar in size. Sized in imperial measurements only, these sleepers are between 8ft 6ins and 9ft  long by 10ins wide by 6 ins deep (all sizes are approximate)

Ideal for outdoor use our reclaimed sleepers are impregnated with creosote to guard against rot and are ideal for use in areas where regular skin contact is not going to be an issue.

Ideal for a variety of uses including steps, flower beds, patios, planters and small dividing walls, these sleepers are both versatile and full of character. Cut from high quality oak these natural sleepers will change over time. These new (green oak) oak sleepers are freshly cut and will change colour from golden yellow through to silver over a time period of 12 months.

New oak railway sleepers are a natural product and will have cracks, shakes, splits and knots. Although we endeavour to provide a standard product, you will find some have scalloped edges and that the measurements are approximate only. However we find that this adds to the character and beautiful natural appearance that only real oak sleepers can provide.

How Long Do Oak Railway Sleepers Last?

Oak railway sleepers are one of the longest lasting types of sleepers. They last much longer than softwood sleepers. Depending on weather conditions and environmental factors, oak sleepers can last anywhere from 30 to 100 years.

Cutting Oak Railway Sleepers

These oak sleepers are very hard to cut. You will need a powerful circular saw or chainsaw to cut. Assume your blades will blunt very quickly. Alternatively you can use a traditional bow saw but allow plenty of time and energy to cut.
