Wood ties vs. Concrete ties.

When I was on a tie gang 25 years ago they were removed by cutting into three pieces by hydraulic shears and tossed to the side. They were pretty much unusable at that point. There is an outfit near Baltimore that mulchs any kind of junk wood including ties and utility poles. About every three years they have a fire that lasts for days. Makes a nice dark mulch but I can't imagine you would want it in your yard. <br /> <br />RH
