Logging Corner III (right side)


 

Here are some pix from the other side of the logging corner.? Cannot show both sides in one image unless I stand so far away that nothing can be seen close-up.??

Shown here is a freight station for receiving supplies used by the sawmill complex.? In the background is a steam donkey used for dragging logs up hills and over the ground to move them closer to the RR tracks for transportation to the sawmill.??

Steam donkey close-up.? This is a really cool hunk of machinery.? (opinion, not scientific fact)

Shown here is a spar pole used to lift logs onto skels or flat cars after they have been dragged close to the RR tracks.? The spar pole on the left is painted onto the wall and I cannot sell it -- but I could include a photo of it enlarged.? You could glue the photo onto your wall.? How's that for some creativity?? The spar pole in the foreground is made from two HO spar poles mounted one on top of another.? Works great for S scale like a lot of HO stuff which is commonly oversized for the scale size printed on the box.
