twelve mile REB Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 Each tree section is on two cars you can tell by counting the journal boxes and then the gap between cars become more distinct. The locomotive looks to be a 1-2-1 and they could be as small as 20 feet however has no or a very small tender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Bullweed Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 Reminded me of a Colt Bisley in .32 WCF that I had years ago. The inside of the grip panel was marked " Yakima Log camp 1906". Today we move 10-30" diameter trees with big equipment. Miles, oxen, ropes and lots of strong hands got these logs from felled timber to this train.
