LINKING THE WORLD WITH MILLIONS OF MILES OF RAILWAY SLEEPER TRACKS
21 March 2023
Railway sleeper tracks connect countries, cities, towns and villages like a global spider's web that unites us all. Tunnelling through mountains, spanning rivers and crossing deserts, the humble railway sleeper carries trains, carriages and freight to every corner of the globe. There is something fascinating and enthralling about a railway line. Whether it's that exciting moment when you walk or drive across a railway track, and stop and glance either way, almost hoping to see a train coming. Whether it's that powerful moment when an electric train speeds through a station at over a hundred miles an hour with an overwhelming whoosh of air. Steam engines, chugging diesels, Eurostars and futuristic Bullet trains, they all conjure a romantic link with the past, and a sense of a greener future.
