I think most of the railings ended up being secretly dumped in the sea after the war finished. As they would have been made of cast iron, I'm not sure if they would have been usefull in shipbuilding. But metaleurgy isn't really my field.
As far as I am aware it was a moral boosting exercise for the British public. Like the pots and pans for the 'spitfire fund'. A lot was dumped in the Thames estuary, not sre about the rest.
