Wood Railroad Ties
Frequently Asked Questions
Railroads used wood railroad ties to support and stabilize steel tracks. They held the rails in place, maintained proper spacing, and helped distribute the weight of passing trains across the ground.
People reuse wood railroad ties for landscaping and outdoor construction projects. Common uses include retaining walls, garden borders, steps, driveway edging, and parking barriers. Their size and weight make them ideal for projects that need structure and durability.
Used railroad ties come directly from rail systems and may show wear, weathering, surface checking, or other signs of prior use. Each tie varies, so appearance and condition are not identical from piece to piece.
