Hi All,
We like using old railroad ties for fence corners and pens and corrals. There is a section of rail nearby that is getting a LOT of new ties installed in the near future. I stopped and talked to the Canadian Pacific guy about the old ties, and he said they pay a salvage company to take them and the salvage company won't give/sell ties to a Regular Joe. (I'll bet the EPA is involved) He did say if you find a pile and you come on the weekend when no one is around, you can take them. Well, that's stealing and I can't bring myself to do that. I asked a guy that works for an independent track maint. company on a different line, and he said the exact same thing. Again, that's stealing. It's frustrating that they're just sitting there and someone has to pay to dispose of them, but they're off limits. Maybe I'll keep my eye out for the salvage company folks and ask them directly.
