I would use woordstone sleepers - the kind that Marshalls make -

The look just like railway sleepers but don't give you splinters ! as well
as not going slimey in winter.

Hope it helps

Hi,

I have a fairly shallow grassy slope in the garden that I would like
to turn into steps using railway sleepers.

Can I just dig out a flat platform and plonk the sleepers on to the
earth or do they need to be pegged or bedded in somehow?

Any and all advice gratefully accepted.
