Hello,
I know the Eastin & Son line. I found an article on the internet with some photos and a "system map".
I really like the smaller logging operations. In my earlier days, I was a big fan of the West Side Lumber Co. and I started several attempts to model her in different scales. But I finally gave up on this.
Meanwhile, I'm choose the operation of the Santa Cruz Lumber Co. that operates some 10 miles of line with only 4 turnouts a half dozend cars and a single Shay. That's something you can model even in 1:20.3 scale.
I look forward to do some progress on the other two cars to get them ready for the next outdoor season. Once the old cars are done, I'll build new logging cars.
Bye, Gerd
