Museum-Grade 18th/19th Century Antique Railway Track – Industrial Heritage Piece This is an extraordinary opportunity to acquire a genuine artifact from the dawn of the Industrial Revolution. This section of heavy-gauge forged iron track dates back to the late 18th to early 19th century, a pivotal era when the world moved from horse-drawn waggonways to the first iron roads. Finding a piece of ironwork from this period is increasingly rare. This track represents the very foundation of modern engineering and the expansion of the western lines. Unlike modern steel rails, this antique iron possesses a unique density and a rich, deep patina that only centuries of natural aging can produce.

Provenance: Sourced from a historic western line, connecting back to the earliest infrastructure projects in the region. Character: Features the distinct "heavy-wear" markings of original heritage track, making it a powerful conversation piece or a centerpiece for a high-end collection. Price & Payment: Price: €5,500 This is a premium historical asset. To ensure a professional and secure transaction: Payment: Bank Transfer only. Collection: Due to the significant historical value and extreme weight of this ironwork, this is for collection only. Viewing: Serious inquiries only.
