We always enjoyed seeing the Weyerhaeuser log train, especially up in the hills.
The log trains were removed from service a few years back, but we caught the tail end of this one headed toward the steep grade down toward the mill.
But here's the exact same spot just a week ago. The rails have been removed, and nature is reclaiming what belongs to her. People seeing the right of way today have to use their imaginations. RIP log train.

Sad to see it go, another chapter in life.
Que fuerza tiene visual tienen esos trenes de troncos Bill. El espectáculo de verlos pasar de cerca y escuchas el sonido debió de ser algo impresionante. Ahora la Naturaleza reclama su espacio y lo va llenando con árboles
Un abrazo
Great you got the photos from before. And great nature is reclaiming it :-D
Stunning moments and photos! I can practically hear the roar of those log trains.. There’s something so peaceful about the cycle changing and the forest taking its space back.
Da la impresión de que el tren ha descarrilado. La naturaleza recupera su espacio.ç
Un abrazo.
While I am sorry to learn of the end of logging trains for your pictures, I think the forest may be safer without the logging. Your documentary photos show the end of the railroad in the woods.
What wonderful pictures of the trains!
