 West Side Pictorial
|
| By : Mallory Hope Ferrell |
All aboard for an exciting visual adventure on the last narrow gauge logging railroad in the West! While everything that was the old West Side Lumber Company's narrow gauge in the Sierra died almost four decades ago, its history continues to have a life of its own in photographs, scale drawings, models, paperwork, artifacts, paintings, preserved equipment, and most of all... memories. On these pages, you'll find a dynamic visual history of the men, women, and machines of West Side, and get a feeling for what began 100 years ago and continues to this day. Take a ride back in time on the last of the narrow gauge loggers!

West Virginia Logging Railroads
|
| By : William Warden |
William Warden began photographing logging railroads in West Virginia in 1957. This book explains and illustrates with both color and black & white photographs the operations of logging railroads in the state from about 1940 until 1960. Includes a fascinating look at the rapid and haphazard laying of track, the challenge of getting up the mountains, and the challenges of derailing locomotives. Warden's book addresses the romance of back woods railroading and takes a look at the loggers' favorite locomotive.
