You need to "acquire" a tractor with loader and trailer too, those things are damned heavy.

yes I know!Big Grin
actually, if I have to B.O. that would be a good location, plenty of rabbits and deer in the woods there and I could use the sleepers "in situ" as it were!!

yeah I know mate, OH had to make a silage pit out of sleepers in her farming days so I've got an idea of how heavy they are. just thought they were a handy acquisition post collapse, going down on my map!
