In the USA, 2x4s were cut from old growth pine from southeastern Appalachia and railed all over. My home from the late 1800s was built with Southern Yellow Pine and I live in the Midwest. This is not technically a hardwood but in terms of density it is just as hard as most hardwoods because it has such tight rings (20-30 per inch).
