Ties, 4"X4" & 5"x5" Sale or Trade

Post by ChipsAhoy »

Shuaro Central Shortline has completed our initial loop and we now have thousands of feet of surplus ties and tie material to dispose of.
Hundreds of 4 x 4 X 30" fir/pine, treated or raw untreated available. More might can be cut to custom Switch Tie lengths.
AND...
Many thousand feet of uncut & untreated Oak timbers... cutting and treating may be arranged.
We don't necessarily need cash, can consider rail, switches and/or rolling stock or locos.
PM me if you have need or interest.
Photos are just a small sample of what we have.

I received a couple inquires about the chemical "treating" on the ties.
It is done by a commercial company, not in my back yard. It is a Pressure/Vacuum cycle in a flooded sealed container.
I will get the brand name of the chemical from the MSDS... when I find it... it's laying around here somewhere. It is currently used by MLS with reasonable success, however it is not a Lifetime guarantee.
I'll post the brand name here shortly.
