I noticed that the sleepers in this picture look different as they are metal. Is this a new type of sleeper with different clips that connect the rail to it?

Not sure why. The fastening type doesn't make for easy removal of railsSeth said:Any particular reason why?
You can see steel sleepers. Just look out for the rust coloured ones when you are next on a train. Also, you can't miss the loud noise they make when you're passing over them....uktrain225 said:steel sleeper is rarely to bee seen!
