Mallets in the Tall Timber
A web page dedicated to the history of the Baldwin logging Mallet
Articulated locomotives. That description brings to the minds of most American rail fans
machines like Union Pacific's Big Boys, or the Y6s of the Norfolk & Western. However, another
interesting aspect of the history of articulated locomotives in America are the Baldwin Logging Mallets, of
which forty-four were built between 1909 and 1937. Don't miss this site's excellent drawings of mallets!

Sloat Lumber Co - Sn3 logging on a budget..
This website is about modeling the logging industry and its connected railroads as it developed in the Pacific Northwest in the late 19th century. It is mainly a source of ideas, and I hope inspiration, as my own modeling is in its early stages. Since my modeling is on a strict budget the emphasis is on kitbashing opportunities etc. If you can afford PBL brass good for you, but you will not find it here..

Swedish River Logging
I came across a 1950's book with some wonderful photos of Swedish logging of that era, which I
want to share. You will find many familiar scenes, which should come as no surprise given the role
of Scandinavian loggers in the Pacific Northwest.
