I'm looking to identify the wood on this web site:

www.swansoncox.net/stack_train.jpg

Not the colored wood, but the natural wood that is the base of
each train. I want to use that wood for another project, and I'd
like to identify it.

Any thoughts? Maple maybe?

Looks like monkey pod(aka raintree)..sorta... that wood, some is similiar in
color to maple, is used for a lot of imported wood furniture(& etc) from
S.E. Asia, S. America and Hawaii(not native).
