Railroad Ti33;l869> at ffromonfrory Stamait: Because putting ties on which to lay rails will be a restoration feature at SGESit, it will be veil to note .here what is }tno^n of the kind and quality of tie used by the two railroads. Interestingly, there was a marked difference between them in the kind of tie used. *Sxis is apparent from a study of the historical photographs of the Golden Spike ceremony -which show the sseetiag point of the tracks and clearly delineate vith detail the kind of ties placed by both railroads. The Central Pacific used sawed and squared ties, with sawed ends; the Union Pacific used rough sections of small trees» the bari left on, and the ends chopped to angled points by asasst with atte side adzed to sake a relatively level surface on to which the tie was laid aad spiked down.
