Hi,

Rail Clamps - maybe the items clamped onto the rails between ties to keep rails from creeping?

Rail anchors (anti-creepers)

Car wheel chock, bolted to RR ties, iron, 40 cm overall - This works out to about 15.75" - I wonder if they are the rail skates.

I do not think Rail anchors were developed until the mid-1950s.

FWIW
