Composit Logging Diorama

In the instruction manual to the Twin Mills at Deer Creek sawmill kit, Brett recommends the book "Pino Grande' by R.S. Polkinghorn as a good reference for how a mill/railroad of this type operated.

Attached is a layout from the book which shows how many of Brett's kits can be incorporated together:
Twin Mills, Loco & Service Shops, Donkey Repair Yard, Railroad Camp, Watertank & Storage Shed, Logging Camp Main Street, and Logging Camp Essentials as well as a few others.

What a diorama that would make. At the speed I model, I'd end up having my care giver finishing up the collection.

Great job of continuity Brett has done

    Hi Ed,
    I have two hardback editions. I picked one up not realizing that I had it already. I specifically have held it with the specific intent of passing it to another SWSM modeler.

    Hi Ed. I did a quick check on Amazon and eBay. The book is in good solid condition. How does $30 + shipping sound? If that's too steep, send me a message and we'll dicker.

    Received my copy of the book today and it is one of the best I have seen on logging.
