EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph depicts a logging railroad operated by the Keystone Lumber Company in the early 1900s. The image, captured by an unknown photographer, offers a glimpse into the industrial past of America's lumber industry. The steam train, with its billowing smoke and large wheels, dominates the scene as it transports logs from the forest to the lumber mill. The logs, neatly stacked on the flatbed cars, are secured with ropes and chains, ensuring a safe journey. The railroad tracks wind through the dense forest, disappearing into the distance, suggesting the vast extent of the logging operations. The dry plate glass negative, measuring 8 x 10 inches, was likely taken between 1901 and 1902. The photograph is a testament to the ingenuity and hard work required to extract natural resources from the wilderness and transform them into valuable commodities. This historic image, now held in the Library of Congress, is a valuable addition to the country's industrial and transportation history.
