250mm x 125mm x 2.4m Treated Softwood Railway Sleeper

250mm x 125mm x 2.4m Treated Softwood Railway Sleeper is a substantial and versatile landscaping timber, ideal for creating bold, long-lasting garden features. Pressure treated for external use, these softwood sleepers offer excellent resistance to rot and decay when installed correctly.

Supplied brand new and not reclaimed, these softwood railway sleepers are planed to a square edge with uniform dimensions, similar to PSE timber. This makes them far easier to stack, align, and fix compared to traditional rough sleepers, particularly when building raised beds, retaining walls, steps, seating, or large garden structures.

Softwood railway sleepers are a popular alternative to oak and hardwood sleepers, offering practical advantages beyond cost. They are easier to handle, cut, and drill using standard woodworking tools, making them especially suitable for DIY projects as well as professional landscaping work. This ease of use can significantly reduce installation time and effort, especially on larger builds.

Common uses include raised garden beds, heavy-duty landscaping borders, steps, retaining walls, seating, planters, and structural garden features where a wider sleeper profile is required. Cut-to-length options are available on request, allowing you to order sleepers sized to suit your project.
