Railroad spikes have been a crucial component of railway construction since the 19th century, holding tracks securely in place and enabling the railroads to expand across the United States. These unassuming yet essential pieces of steel helped power the nation’s industrial growth, uniting towns and cities and paving the way for modern commerce and travel.
Each salvaged spike has its own story, often having weathered decades of use on active rail lines. The wear and patina tell a tale of time and endurance, making these spikes not only functional but also deeply symbolic of resilience and ingenuity.
At All American Reclaim, we take pride in preserving history and repurposing it for modern use. Our salvaged railroad spikes are a tangible piece of America’s industrial heritage, offering a connection to the past and a world of creative possibilities for today.
