New Oak Railway Sleepers

New oak railway sleepers are classified as landscaping grade, as opposed to furniture or beam grade. That means that although they are primarily square cut, they may have some rounded or waney edges, or cracks or imperfections. Like all 'green' or freshly cut landscaping railway sleepers they have been cut in the last six months and are still seasoning or drying out , as opposed to kiln dried oak furniture oak which is slowly heated in driers over weeks, and would need a second mortgage at the very least!
