Logging Corner IV (right side)

Sawmill employees (on my layout) need to take the train to work each day.? Thus, a need for a small RR station shown here.? Don't ask me why it is made from stone (ground floor) -- I have not a clue.? Note the milk cans on the baggage wagon.? Yep, the milk train just delivered them.? But it is cute as a button.? (opinion, questionable fact.)
Here is the finished goods loading dock where cut lumber is loaded onto standard gauge flat cars for delivery to customers in the far away city.? As business increased over time, the more modern gray dock was built to handle the additional volume.? The brown dock was board-by-board constructed by Don Leger of Arizona fame.? Each board has fantastic wood grain and nail heads.? Don't ask about the frog number of the turnouts -- they are sharp, but the small crane handles them very well.
Here is a close-up showing the wood grain, nails, turnout frogs, small crane (yes, it rotates), etc.? A true work of art.?? -- Ed Loizeaux Los Altos, CA
