    Can anyone recommend a source of steel sleepers for 1' 11½" gauge?

    I am aware the F&WHR ordered a quantity for Phase 4 of the Welsh Highland - but I haven't (yet) found any information online as to where they came from.

    Probably easier to contact them to ask about it. Some steel sleepers were obtained from South Africa. The rest I think were made in Poland but I may be wrong.

    Thanks for the further recent replies - it may be a year since the original request but no decision has yet been made regarding steel sleepers so the information is very useful.
