Hit the creek again Sunday afternoon and it was as clear and pretty as I can remember. This was all I found but it was worth the trip to me. I figure it's a railroad lock, but does anybody have a rough idea of its age?

No ID help, but that's a nice find.
Congrats and thanks for sharing
 
very nice find there…still looking for one myself...
 
Looks to be a pretty cool lock! Possibly late 1800's. Just a guess. Congrats!
 
That's a nice one ..IMO mid -late 1800's

I've yet to find one of that style.

Thank you for sharing your hunt and those pictures with us
 
Very nice old lock. I like the pic in the water. Supposedly soaking in Apple cider vinegar and a good stiff wire brush will clean up rusted relics really well. You might find some maker's name hiding there.
