Description |
English: At first, logging companies cut trees along rivers and other bodies of water. They floated the logs downstream to the sawmill. After these areas were logged over, companies began using railroads to haul logs to a river or directly to the mill. The tracks could be moved as needed. This photo shows a Shay locomotive, the train crew, and flatcars full of logs. Shay engines were especially designed for steep places and tight curves. The photo was taken sometime between 1903 and 1905 at North Bend, Washington. Mt. Si is in the background. Handwritten on sleeve: Logging train at Mt. Si (Now Sunset hiway) 1900-5. Caption by MOHAI staff.
