sawmill part 2

saw added to second floor, waiting to get more wood to side the sawmill.

log dump under construction I plan on putting a donkey engine on the other side with cables on poles to pull the logs off the log cars.

 old sawmill was reworked, tracks moved and saw removed as seen in next picture

by moving the building to the wall and moving the tracks, I now have a yard/team track in Cave Junction

I think this will be a better arrangement for operating.



the actual Hobbs, Pomeroy Co. box plant worked 1,250,000 feet of lumber into boxes in 1880.

Boxes were destined for bread and sugar, and for the Cutting & Co. packing house of San Francisco.  From 1,500 to 2,000 boxes were turned out daily.














mean while I kit bashed a couple of kits together for a friends N scale layout. He will be using them as part of a Talc mine complex.
