...seen on the ends of sleepers just south of Dore station? They don't seem to be on the sleepers between the platforms

There’s a decent video showing the bits you can’t see if you follow the link in an earlier thread, posted a few days ago:

What are these at Yatton?

There are what appear to be metal brackets on every third sleeper on the down line at Yatton. What would they be for?

As the video shows a very similar device can be fitted in the middle of a sleeper.
