Glanville Lumber Co. 4-truck heavy-duty flatcar carrying log skidder

4-truck heavy-duty flatcar carrying log skidder

A massive steam-driven log skidder (used to pull the fallen logs to a point when a crane would lift them on to logging cars) weighs down this extra-heavy flat car, which has four trucks to distribute the weight. A friend gave me this all-metal flat car in 1979, and I painted it with Glanville colors and added the decals.

Other views: (a) from above; (b) being pulled uphill by a Class A Shay logging locomotive.
