I am impressed at the quality of the footage, it's hard to believe most if not all is gone and forgotten. That was a great time to be a proud American. I especially like the scene where the train was rounding the curve in the mountains, that was more great filming.
I grew up in a small town on Vancouver Island. Eberywhere in the bush where I lived there was remnants of the railroad logging. Rail, ties, cable, dogs, spikes. Ibe worked in the bush logging and salvaging timber for 30 years. Everywhere I've worked I've found artifacts from logging. Its interesting to watch these films, you can get an idea of what was going on back then. Pretty cool, amazing stuff👍
It was cool to see footage of the Clyde tracklayer near Klamath Falls. I grew up there and hauled lots of loads of logs over those old railroad grades.
I always enjoy seeing former Westside Heisler 3, now Roaring Camp Number #2 in action. She’s such a neat and powerful little engine despite her cantankerous personality.
It was a pleasure to make this program - documenting the way it was. I was fortunate to have access to incredible archives of film and the support of many old timers.
Unbelievable footage, my hat goes off to these great men and their achievements, true Timber men who make us present day mob look like a bunch of sissy's. Amazing achievements for the time, they definately paved the way for us, 11/10 !!!!!!
These have been fun to watch. This is how my granddad logged in Snohomish Co.Washington for the
Wallace Fall Timber Co.

Rayoneir 70 sounded so different that what it does today. It has a loud and proud voice for a small logging locomotive.
This will certainly inspire some new logging layouts.

Sold. I didn't even know footage like this existed.
I’m from Hoquiam. I love logging history

70 still runs in mineral Washington
I'm okay with background music in silent movies but prefer sounds of the trains alone in sound films.
Nice
What`s the name of the tune??
How do you like this al gore.
What a pity to spoil a soundtrack like this with music
It would've been better to separate the music. Good apart but not together.
