Date Nails
Author: mkancle

When I was younger I actively collected date nails from multiple railroads in the Pittsburgh area. I found some on the Montour, the Buffalo, Pittsburgh, and Rochester,the Western Maryland, and the Kaylor Branch of the B&LE RR.
I still have quite a few and would like to give them away! I attached a picture of a few that are available. Maybe they could be incorporated into somebodies RR display. If anybody would like them just let me know!

No thank you. I'm trying to get out of the date nail business, What I do have will go to a museum about 90 miles from me. upkpfan

Most of my collection is based off of family birthdates; 30,58,60. For some reason 33 is a tough one to find.

1933 was the depth of the Great Depression, very few new ties were purchased.
