As the former Slamannan to Bo'ness line approaches the B8022, these were the only remains of wooden sleepers seen on the Slamannan to Whitecross section of the disused L&NER track. Giver that this section of line had been closed for around 50 years, it's remarkable that these timbers are still in a reasonable condition.
