Shawn is in the process of deforesting the Kittatinny Mountains so he has an unobstructed view out of his picture window…and besides, he needs more lumber for his vacation home,

ie: lean to…:wink:

@ Shawn…I was only kiddin’ as John noted above BC has no shortage of trees. And besides a BC logging RR has to carry BC wood. :slight_smile: What would the tree huggers think if I was importing NE hardwoods. Glad the clear cutting is progressinf tho…they are only trees…they will grow back HEHe (tree huggers are rallying to head off to Joisy right now) LOL
Thanks for the offer tho.

Very Nice Looking Cars! reminds me of a trip we took a few years back…

LOL You guys got the cheap soft wood. You need some good hardwood from the north east.

Quiet Rooster!

Hat tip Randy. I’m just starting to think about a couple of crude logging cars to go with the little steam donkey engine; yours are too nice!

The other winter project in your pics looks great too. I just finished building the jig and cutting my redwood into dimensional lumber. Now it will be time for me to assemble the bents. Just gotta get the time to do it.
