A chunk of neutronium placed gently at rest on the Earth's surface may sink into the Earth. Like a lead ball in a cereal box. It may even free fall because Earth's rock material would feel like air from the point of view of neutronium. An interesting friction concept. The neutronium would fall toward the core but as it does so, the Earth's local gravity field drops to zero.
If the neutronium chunk doesn't pick up enough speed, it may come to a stop before reaching Earth's center because the little resistance offered by the Earth's material may be enough to slow the chunk in the weaker gravity field near the center. If it does pick up enough speed, it will overshoot the core and fall back, perhaps several times before coming to rest near the core.
