I went down there this morning but he was decked out with customers - 6 people waiting for the scales - so I didn't have a chance to ask him. I'll try to pop in later in the week.

Just to follow up, on a spare piece I ran some beads then beat with a BFH and it stayed on 
So chopped of a short piece with the bottles, cleaned, welded and lots of grinding job done! Just need a new belt for the sander to give it a final polish, but good enough to use for now.. Rounded one edge and sharp the other, I did get a few wormholes but nothing to worry about really should of dried my rods first!

The scrapyard opposite our place has a few lengths of railtrack and its in like new condition and before ya say it....no its not half inched 
all I can say is....it was from a Paper Mill
I know for certain (as all scrap dealers are) he doesnt give much away, what would be a length people would be happy with and what would they be willing to pay ? I have no idea what the stuff is worth but I could run it by him if anyone was interested ? Theres no guarantee he would sell the track to me but if anyone is interested ????????
