Default Found this while looking for mushrooms

Found this along the old B&O railroad track. It was buried and I was scratching around for bottles.
Any idea on this?

Maybe next week but we need some rain first. I think I need to find a new spot.

I'm not so sure the ketchup ever had a glass stopper..could someone show me one?

I was hoping this was RailRoad related.
