Does somebody know the track length for the Gargraves bumper? Their website does not show the dimension.

However, I have several dead-end tracks where I simply removed a Gargraves tie from a piece of scrap track, turned it upside down, slid it onto the rails...instant wheelstop/bumper...low budget.

This is what I do. I remove two and set them up crisscrossed. Looks like something you might see on an abandoned/temporary siding.
I do basically what BillYo414 does and use it on 4 dead end tracks in my main yard. I have tons of ties on small leftover cut pieces, so virtually a free, unlimited supply.They actually look pretty good. Although they are mostly for show than go, I did “accidentally test” them once and they worked much better than expected.
I tried GG bumpers once and, although I love and exclusively use their track, I am not a fan of their bumpers.
