Modern Era Logging Railroads Info Request
Posted by

Any info on web sites about modern era, 1960 - to present, logging ops, such as McCloud River, Crown Zellerbach, CanFor?
I have the Pentrex tape on CanFor, the McCloud River Book, the Walther's book on Timber, and the RMC series of articles from the early 90's.
Any websites out there? Any books or other sources out there?
Thanks for the help!

Good site for Crown Zellerbach Locomotives and photos:
http://www.pnwc-nrhs.org/rr-history/CZ-index.html
Often the corporate records of a company offers a wealth of info. The University of California at Berkely has the Crown Zellerbach Corporation Records. If you're on the west coast, perhaps a trip is in order.

The Crown Zellerbach Corporation Photographic Collection at Oregon State University features photos of the paper mill in Lebanon, Oregon. Again, you'll have to make a field trip there. http://osulibrary.oregonstate.edu/archives/archive/pho/p216inv.html
