I cleaned off about 8 feet, and then stripped out a welded stud for one of the ties... It's going to have to be a "good enough" job. I don't have the time or space to strip to bare rails and deal with all of that, unfortunately. I would have loved to sand blast and paint it all, but I just can't afford to close the shop for a week to do so.

Doesn't really matter, 2-3 years here in the rust belt even a perfect job would be rusting again.
