33 Different Boston and Maine RR date nails 1925-1957

Date Nails were placed in RR ties to indicate the date of the placement.  I haven’t done much with these nails since I pulled them from the Boston and Maine Central RR as a young kid many years ago. The first 1925 through 1930 nails are cast iron. During the war years, they used small 1” nails – I assume to save steel for the war effort. Some are rusty and bent – see photos.
