The Scottish Railway Preservation Society
Bo'ness Station, Union Street, Bo'ness, West Lothian EH51 9AQ
They have a yard where they maintain and restore trains that is where we got ours was back in 2006 it's the old wooden railway sleepers excellent product they had loads of them and were pretty cheap no harm in asking if they still do them.

not 100% on this but thought real old used railway sleepers wernt suposed to be sold anymore.
i use them in work alot and was told this by a local farmer who suplys us.
you can buy new cut timber sleepers from any timberyard for cheap though.
how did you get on??
