  • Howcome American lumber cars and logging trucks always have what looks like 15 foot long timber cuts on them? Up here in British Columbia, we just cut the tree down and put the whole thing on a truck.

  • @CowsXonXcrack - This train is nowhere near the US! As for the log lengths, I'm not sure, but full length logs are rare, for both rail and road, except for haulage in the forest itself.

  • Horn is an S2M if anybody was wondering.

    Nice video!

  • @uberstupidmove - Can you identify the horn type on our DC class?  See video zFgmhYp-sJ0

  • @uberstupidmove - The lead locomotive has an S-2M on the front, and an S-31 facing backwards, on the long hood, i.e., three trumpets all up.

  • FOREST DEBASTATION

  • @patriot3dx - The forests are planted by man, then harvested, then replanted. It's called sustainable forestry.

  • Excellent video!!

  • @CowsXonXcrack

    Typical Canuck, LOL

  • Good video !

  • @cochranexyz Ahaha no I was just asking in general because Americans cut their timber the same length.

  • @GeoffBlackmore It bloody well has to be since man shaved the bejesus out of it. We can't let old stands of timber just stay there, can't we?

  • Did the KiwiRail symbol on the engine throw off your geography?

  • @CowsXonXcrack Here in california you may not go over a 65' or 40' kingpin to center rear axel, Just really depends what roads your taking and where your timbers gotta get, Adjust load from there... Alot of the time though, im pretty sure the mill gives the crew a pre determained length they are looking for...

  • Excellent video.

    Greetings from Poland.

  • @GeoffBlackmore Where is this? And you always see full length trees on the highway where I live, not on trains though, only cut lumber gets transported by train.
