Looks pretty small. But for the price, it may be worth it. Wish I was closer to Milo.
-
I will be in milo this week, if we are interested in the rails, let me know.
-
Gee, for $100 flat almost anything would be worth it. And i bet you could even work em down to $75.
-
Realistically now - these are rails that are 10 to 20 feet long and there appears to be 6 of them. We don't know weight or what kind of shape they are in. Assuming they are 60 pound, we get between 30 to 60 feet of mainline track; otherwise it's a siding track and who knows if we'll ever even use it.

I'm sure you're right, but whenever I look at such ads I always wonder if the seller actually took the time to measure, etc.
-
The rail in the pic looks to be 12# or maybe 16# also very rusty so may only be good for setout tracks along the line.
-
The rail could be used for fence posts along the East side of the new parking lot.

Well if the BOD wants it, email me, and I can arragne to get it. I will be in the area tomorrow, and need another excuse for this weekend.

Don't we have a supply of under-sized rail just north of Brook Crossing?
