Structure Construction Group has done some work for me in the past. I haven't had them build a fence but plan on using them to do so this spring. I've worked with Steven Sickinger over there and he's been easy to work with. I think they have a pretty good fence crew.

I built a 6' tall retaining wall in Baton Rouge. after interviewing a couple of contractors, I decided to do it myself. I wasn't convinced any of them really knew what they were doing and I knew they didn't have any real experience since BR is so flat.

I went with a keystone retaining wall block and followed or exceeded the design and build specs provided. 600 - 90lb blocks was no joke. The first course was the hardest. After that it wasn't too bad. It's all about the geogrid, drainage behind the wall, and compacting in small rises. Moved over 200 yards of material (river silt, brown clay, 3/4' limestone). Fun project that took me around two months to complete and another year to finish everything else - subsurface drainage, landscape, landscape lighting, sod, hardscape, etc.

I would advise against railroad ties. If you are going less than 2'-3' then it would be pretty simple. I have the Keystone PDF somewhere that I used as my instruction book.
