Having now helped level an existing track (at Kidstown)- lifting track and packing ballast, I figure bigger sleepers will be an improvement. So timber attached by screws to the welded steel 'ties' is the plan - as is common practice.We have recycled the old balcony deck and have over 400 pieces of Jarrah about 90X20mm and generally a bit over 300 long. Cut to length and with the tongue and groove trimmed off they should be good for another 50 years...
First 4.5 metres done, and at 7 per metre we can do over 55 metres of track, excellent.
