Appendix No. 4. Burnettizing on Central Vermont Railroad
In reply to your favor of the 25th instant, I would say that in 1856 this road erected works for the purpose of extracting sap from wood and of infusing chemicals for the purpose of preservation. It was in use some four years, but it was so much work to get through with such large quantities of timber as are used upon a railroad that it was thought best to abandon the work; therefore, the boiler and fixtures were removed and sold, and nothing more was thought of the “Burnettizing” process until some three years since, when an old side track was removed, which had not been in use for several years, and which was nearly covered with earth and grass; still the hemlock ties were then found to be nearly sound, having laid there for nearly 25 years.
