Welcome to the Martin Lumber Company, a division of the Waukesha & Menomonee Valley Railroad and Navigation Comapany!

After a visit to the forests of West Virginia, I realized what my layout was missing...A logging pike. I already had a Rivarossi Heisler, and 4 log cars, so I was in business. 1/2 year later, I have more equipment, more buildings, more time, and more experience. I will share with you my findings, reviews of equipment, and my questions for you about modeling a logging railroad.

Just because I created this group with HO in the title, it doesn't mean it is all about modeling. Anyone who likes logging railroads, scaled down or prototypical can post messages.

And a quick note. It doesn't matter what scale you model to post. ALL scales are welcome.

Please keep your posts logging related, but there will be certain leeway for shortlines, and narrow gague railroads.

So enjoy your stay, and keep this group alive!

Philip Martin,
Owner and operator of the W&MVR&NCo.
