Modeling logging railroads (Download Now)

Modeling a rugged logging railroad, with its tight curves, steep grades, and unique equipment, can be a rewarding experience. This package takes a look at a prototype logging railroad, the Eagle River & Northern Ry., and then explains some of the key features and terminology of the logging industry. It also offers a number of track plans and includes a look at Steve Anderson’s spare-room-sized Sn3 West Side Lumber Co. layout and Lionel Strang’s HO scale Northwest Timber Co. RR.
