Railway bits for anvil

Anyone have some rail I could have to use for an anvil/ As we all know anvils are too expensive, especially if you wont be using it to much, and what kind of work should be done to it before using it as an anvil?
 
Ive got some i'll part with but i need a saw to part it and i ask only for trade of other material..
 
Well I've got plenty of 1/4" diamond steel plate, and some stainless sheet metal I could trade if you feel interested. Otherwise in what areas would you find the stuff lying around?
 
Not many small pieces of track anywhere now most are hidden in garages :D. track can be found but in the dark of the night in full lengths o_O. Ill take some plate
 
So you're the guy! (kidding)

Yeah piles of loose rails around and they cut out the working track ... hero points there boys
 
I have a post about rail in the classified section if you need any. Some nose picker set a brush fire trying to steal my rail this summer and got caught. Don't steal it. It wasn't worth it for this dude who set our land on fire. Btw I know who it was and he was spoken to.
