Yes, could you post pictures? It would be very helpful to identify what you are talking about.

Help identifying rail brand or rail maker
Posted by Papa Bear on Wednesday, March 8, 2017 11:50 AM
I am wondering if the maker of this rail can be identified. The letters appear to be S C G A. although the third letter could be a B or an R (to add to the confusion).
 
This was found on private property in northern Utah along the stretch that the UPRR sold to the CPRR after the completion of the Transcontinental Railroad. It appears to be 60lb/yard rail.
 
Thanks in advance
