Who do you recommend for spikes and track bolts.

A lot depends on where you are located and how much shipping you pay, or whether you can just go and pick them up.

In central PA, Kovalchick Salvage Co in Indiana Pa is very competitive on spikes and bolts.
Vossloh Track Materials in Reading, Pa is good.
Then there are the LB Fosters and Atlantic Track & Turnout etc.

Lewis Bolt and Nut makes all sizes of button head oval neck track bolts. Ask for Dave Barry.
Ph: (800) 328-3480

And, yes, Kovalchick does keep some stock of bolts and spikes. Not sure if he would have the smaller size bolts you would need. Are you using standard 5/8"x6" cut track spikes or something smaller?

This is who I get my OTM from.

What I like is that I can order online, pay using my Amazon account and the items show up at my door a few days later. And they seem to be more focused on the smaller sized items used on mine trackage and two foot gauge railways.
