Last week I had the pleasure of being shown around an area where a logging train is still in use today. It was quite an experience to see how things operate.
The friend who showed me around worked there for many years, prior to his retiring. Hope you enjoy the pictures.
This locomotive is no longer in service.
The reloader (In my friends day this machine was made of wood)
The reload (lifting the logs from a truck and placing them onto the railway car)
Finally lifting the back portion of the logging truck and piggybacking it on the forward section of the truck.
