Hey Hugh - My parents gave me one of those RR spike drivers a few years ago. They spotted it at a yard sale and picked it for just a couple $. (When asked, all lady running the sale knew about it was "it's heavy").

Anyway it does get used every once in a while when the heft (about 12# I'd guess) and a narrow striking are required.

I can't imagine working one of those drivers all day long like the old time railroaders did. Just a couple minutes on it is good enough for me! ...Bob
