Originally released in either 1991 or 1992, this very short Pentrex title that was originally produced by Mr. Chadwell O’Connor with Helen O’Connor & Ralph Lettelier of O’Connor Films, chronicles a variety of shays & heislers in 1951 & 1953, with a nice musical background that was combined with authentic steam sounds. There is even a handful of onboard footage from one of the logging trains as well as diesel electric trucks, & even historic steam powered donkeys & sawmills. Not to mention still images of the aftermath of accidents & incidents. Most of the logging locos seen in this program have been thankfully preserved.
