You sure done your homework little dude. A few question please. Some of these are questions you're going to ask yourself anyway, if you haven't already. <br /> How long have you been studying Logging operations? <br /> Would you be intrested in links for logging operations and sawmills? <br /> Do you buy Timber Times? [url]http://www.timbertimes.com/[/url] <br /> Will your logging branch be a narrow gauge road? if so, will it interchange with a standard gauge railroad? <br />Do you, or will you, have a sawmill operation with a log pond? If yes, how large and what era? <br /> How many loggs or car loads will the logging road produce? Is it enough to supply your busy sawmill or will the railroad pick up logs from another location? <br /> <br /> I'm building a micro layout, HOn30, with a logging theme. The locomotive is a Class A Vertical Boiler Climax. It will be a tiny operation and will be set in the late 1890's or early 1900's. The entire layout is 2 foot square and will occupy the inside of a 40" radius curve of a standard gauge railroad and as a view block. The micro layout is removable to allow access to service the curve and to operate off site. <br />
