Working up the switchbacks from the Lily Pond camp on the 2' Monson.

Fireman was a bit overzealous stoking the fire.

Around another switchback.

Unloading at Boyd Lumber Co.

Back to the woods for another load.

Lovely stuff! Here's one from my Thatcher Brook Railroad. Thanks to thegrindre (Rick) for these fantastic bunk cars. I've re-purposed them as scenery objects.

Nothing exceptional with this load. It's on its way to the mill.

Have fun... I still am. http://www.elvastower.com/forums/public/style_emoticons/default/sign_rockon.gif

Here are a few shots of a load headed to Phipps Lumber on the Ozark Northern. The haul was on level ground, so chains were not needed on the disconnects.
