DENHOLM — Railway ties are 小蓝视频 stockpiled along parts of CN's Aberdeen subdivision, which runs between Humboldt and North Battleford, and residents of Denholm aren't happy about it.
Stacks of ties have been created alongside the railway across the street from several houses in the village of about 88 people. While piles of ties have been left at Denholm before — even for years at a time — the size of this latest stockpile has caused alarm.
At least one local resident has sent an email to CN expressing concern over the used ties posing a fire hazard and a safety issue for children of the community, as well as the environment.
The equipment performing the stockpiling is identified as belonging to contractor Herzog Railroad Services.
The News-Optimist/SASKTODAY.ca is awaiting word from CN on a query sent Friday.
Here is an updated story.
