Hi folks,
Can anyone point me in the right direction please, I’m looking for decent photos and information on rural (off the beat and track) rail served lumber yards and saw mills, anything from the 1950s through to the modern era. I’m looking for images of the type of cars used, trucks that hauled timber and in particular photos of the types of saws used in the mills. I’d like to know how the timber was moved (unloaded) between the rail and the mill.
I’m fairly up to date with the types of equipment used in British saw mills as I spent many years working as a saw operator but I’d like to know how things are set up in the USA.
Kindest Regards.
