Poplar Tramway Cross-Ties from Germany
Poplar tramway cross-ties are non-coniferous wood ties used in urban tramway systems, impregnated with creosote and featuring pre-drilled bolt holes. Poplar is a hardwood, so these ties fall under tariff item 4406.92.00. The creosote treatment and bolt holes do not alter their classification as railway sleepers.
