Picked up a dozen hiking the railroad tracks yesterday. Seems I ought to be able to do something creative with them. I usually don’t create purely for art’s sake, I want it to be practical.
I can wire wheel the rust off but can’t heat it enough to work that way.
You could use them to secure some steel rails to large wooden sleepers, and then transport goods and people on carriages that roll upon the rails.
Seems someone already tried that and left a bunch laying around. Must have been a failed experiment.
It will never catch on.
These silly kids with their new fads. They should do something productive instead, like leash two large beasts of labour to a wheeled cart and transport goods and raw materials that way instead.
Back in the good old days, we used to carry things with our hands.
