Took one look at your N scale pulpwood load, and an old TV ad jingle popped into my mind -----
"From the valley of the jolly
Ho Ho Ho
Green Midget"

Those are really good looking logs, sometimes nature really can be an excellent source for details.

That is some nice modeling. Awesome! Love the looks of the truck.

How appropriate: "bucked" logs.

Both the truck and the logs look good!

great work

Thanks guys, much appreciated !

Great litlle truck & load....!!!!

What are the logs made of..??

Thanks Gus, they are twigs, VERY small twigs. From 1/32nd to 5/16th's of an inch thick and 5/8th's of an inch long.

Here are three more with the unmodified ones setting next to them, also a couple of shots with them on the layout although they may be moved around some before finding a permanent home.

Great work! That's showing the world that N-scale can do it.

!!...Terrific job..!!!

And in N scale...doubly so...!!

I thought those logs were the real thing. Just wanted to confirm...

great work,

aber where is the crane?

Guys thanks for the kind words! Harry if the crane you are refering to was one to transfer the wood from the trucks to the flat cars, there isn't one. I'm modeling the 60's and the real yard here did all that by hand back then. They did get a forklift in the late 70's.

Ok, since the worker gets a herniated disc ....... hock:

Sorry to hear about your disc , hope it's better/fixed now Harry.
