I've seen posts about these before, try searching for "railway sleepers" and similar.

Just be careful if you use old sleepers or wood to grow any edible plants. The sleepers can Often be treated with chemicals that leach into the roots and can make your veg toxic!
Usually grand for decorative plants that are hardy tho.
