Yes, Czar is right, we laid ties. It went well when one of us (not me) realized if we used the front loader to unload ties it would work better than one at a time. A lot of back acheing work was saved. I don't remember who thought up the idea, but he deserves an award. Paul backed the loader while 2 of us rolled the ties out ~2ft. apart. Turns out the ties fit in the loader with about 2 inches to spare on each end except for one a small number of lenghthy ties.
