Will email you before we go down again - this time it was a hectic trip (busy schedule) - good thing is we bought a GPS so now I can find myself even when I am lots.  la

Great pics - very nice rolling stock - we were down in Michigan for a birthday party this past weekend (Anarbor).
cheers Ferd

A couple of completed photos.  We have different connector links to handle long or short logs.  Now to get the shay out and pull these two.

We have 2 pair of trucks waiting for a caboose to be built so Jack has turned them into log trucks.  I welded up the racks while Jack and Brett K. helped out on making the links to tie the trucks and cars together.  The rack gets bolted to the big timber in the background on the far truck.  I will post pictures next week of the finished cars.
