Railway sleepers, also known as railroad ties, railway ties, or crossties, play a crucial role as a foundational component in railway infrastructure. Typically positioned between two rail tracks, these sleepers maintain the appropriate gauge spacing essential for the smooth and safe operation of trains.
With a history spanning over a century, railway sleepers have undergone continuous development to align with the diverse requirements of railway tracks. Timber is now the world’s most widely used material for the manufacture of railway sleepers and railway switches and crossings in general.

TYPES OF TIMBER UNDER RAILS
Timber under rails covers different types of products, mainly sleepers.
Sleepers: For plain lines: a wooden beam that supports running rails, guard rails and conductor rails, perpendicular to its axis. Typically, the beam supports two running rails to form a track.
Bearers in switch and crossing layouts: a timber beam similar to a sleeper but usually longer, which is used to support the running rails, guard rails, conductor rails, crossings and the systems used to manoeuvre the railway switches and crossings. Often called switch tie, turnout tie, railway wooden sleeper for turnout.
Longitudinal timber for bridges and pit roads: This refers to timber placed underneath the railway rails and in line with the rails, to support them and to shift the loads to the infrastructure in the axis of the track.
