Oops

Sorry Shamus, :rolleyes:

Didn't see the "Re" in front of this thread. Serves me right for not paying more attention to what is going on in The Gauge.

Best of luck with the Logging Forum, I look forward to it. From the sounds of it....so do a lot of others!

Thanks!

Shamus,

I haven't seen the new Bachmann HO Climax, but it's good to hear that they're expanding their logging locos. I received a catalog from Model Expo, that announced a 2T Shay in ON30 due for release in December this year. Have one preordered. Will give a report when it comes in.

My favorite model railroad store up here in the Great White North (Canada) claims not to know anything about the new Bachmann Climax. (sure hope they make one, their Shay is to die for!) They did point out the newly updated line of Rivarossi (sp?) logging stuff, including a Climax......their poster looks great! You can also find photos of Rivarossi's new stuff at the beginning of the 2003 Walthers catalogue.

BTW...why doesn't Rivarossi fall under alphabetical order just like everybody else in the Walthers catalogue?

Hi,

I also like the logging theme of a railroad.
But I have a question.
Logging in modern times, let's say the eighties, how do they transport the trees to the sawmill ?
Still with the railroad or with trucks ?
As beeing an Europian I realy don't know how it is been done in the US or Canada these days.
Hope I will not have to wait until Newyearsday for an answer.

Nice picture Russ.

Guess I need to order flatcars and a few styrene I-beams to glue un the flatcars as cross bars to put the logs on.
In N-scale I think that is the best option.

Thanks again,

Paul

I haven't seen too many lumberjacks around here in BC that look like that, but I'm sure they're very nice. :D
