Judging by the 1949 photo showing the stacks of lumber and the CPR sidings into the site, my guess would be that cut ties were delivered by rail & stacked on one side of the property, processed through the creosote plant, and then stacked on the other side of the property waiting to be picked up by CPR for delivery.
