Pretty obvious! as this is an LU site, is it something disgusting you found laying on the floor on a D stock? ;D

Not something you'd find in B&Q's screws and nails section unless they've moved into the track component business. ;D |

Answers!
As correctly guessed by Colin they are rather junky screws used to connect the railways sleepers! A full photo is availbe on the above link. (Or should be availble very soon.)
Whilst talking to my dad today they'll be going on eBay soon if anyone is interested in them. Should you wish to put in an offer before hand feel free to PM me.
