"It's the allowing of people to put something on here for kids to play in that's really upsetting," said Willie Worster, who lives on Haig Road.
He says he's upset because wooden railroad ties are soaked in the chemical creosote, which can cause contamination to land and is harmful to humans.
The ties on Haig Road have been there for years, but residents worry the land they sit on may be unsafe.
"It needs to be cleaned up," said Terry Russell, who lives across from the piles of ties. "I mean there's thousands and thousands of railroad ties over there."
