The Planing Mill, with it's operating mill water wheel, is the most visited building in Unionville. It was William Eakin in 1840 that built the original Planing Mill on our site. In 1872 it was leased, and eventually sold to Robert Harringston in 1881. As a working mill for 140 years, it supplied doors, flooring, lumber and window, along with other local milled material for the many barns, houses, schools and churches in this area. The mill was destroyed by fire in 1983.
The site was redeveloped in cooperation with the town and the historical society, in May 1987. Today the property is owned by Unionville Village Holdings. They are committed to preserving our Unionville past history, but at the same time developing future Markham & Unionville quality properties. 232

We went for a hike again and it was wonderful. The forest is so cool and soothing.

Milling planks the ancient ways, with steam. This sawmill is using steam power to cut logs into planks. Attached by a twisted drive band to the engine, the loggers keep the wood hard-pressed against the cutting guides whilst the saw does its job. With smoke, steam and sawdust filling the air, and the ragged sound of wood cutting accompanied by the repetitive chough of the engine, this really is quite something to watch.

A tree had fallen across the trail and was cut to allow hikers and bikers to get by. It looks like the forest crew was in a good mood that day as they cut a smiley face into the log with a chainsaw. A fun way to leave a mark while cleaning up.
Three Union Pacific GE ET44ACs (ET44AHs) lift a manifest freight heavy with lumber loads through the curves of Bealville, California, on March 1, 2016.
Rio Grande GP40 No. 3076 leads a train of forest products through Thistle, Utah on the snowy but sunny morning of Nov. 30, 1975.
A beautiful old abandoned house setting up a little dead end dirt road. I wonder what stories it could tell.
Rio Grande GP40-2 No. 3107 leads train No. 126 under US Highway 6 at Detour, Utah in Spanish Fork Canyon the morning of April 2, 1988.
Bulls and cows alike are required to put reproduction on the front burner for a short period of time. It is during the rut that bulls may burn off as much as thirty percent of their accumulated body fat herding and breeding, leaving them in a severely energy depleted state going into winter. This bull was so tired he was just lumbering through.
St. Louis Southwestern GP60 No. 9661, an EMD GP60 demonstrator, and an SP B30-7 pull a 50-car Eugene, Oregon to Chicago, Illinois forest products train through Riverton, Utah the evening of Aug. 19, 1994. You can bet your bottom dollar this 5,624 ton train had a helper engine added at Castilla for the steep ascent to Soldier Summit.
A single GP40M-2 switches out the Hagle lumber yard on local freight LOF63. This crew works most of the remaining carload freight customers in and around Oxnard. The 1533 is a former MKT GP40, rebuilt to a GP40M-2 by the SP in the early 90s.

Let's return to the Tehachapi Mountains for another look at one of Doug's favorite areas to watch and photograph trains. Southern Pacific 9217, an SD45T-2 model, leads a bulk train of forest products west of Bealville, California. A four unit helper was cut in mid-train. Any idea as to a train symbol?

With SP run through power, Rio Grande train No. 194 pulls through Roy, Utah at 56th South on Union Pacific's Salt Lake Subdivision.
While driving around Pilsen I happened in to the BNSF local on the remaining stub of the Lumber District. They brought some additional empty gondolas over to Sims Metals on Paulina and then switched Domino Sugar. 7/3/23. I was hoping to grab a shot of the train out on the short stub still in place on Cermak (a short distance behind the engine in this shot), but they only dropped off three empty gons here rather than pull the whole string out.
The Lumber Exchange Building was the first skyscraper built in Minneapolis, Minnesota, United States, dating to 1885. It was designed in the Richardsonian Romanesque style by Franklin B. Long and Frederick Kees and was billed as one of the first fireproof buildings in the country. It is the oldest high-rise building standing in Minneapolis, and is the oldest building outside of New York City with 12 or more floors.
I like this large truck. One man can deliver all this lumber to a job because he carries his own fork lift with him.
I’m not tooting my own horn, but notice that I caught the tie down in mid-air. A little stop action. Soon I will be able to progress to turtles crossing the road or to ducks swimming in the river.
Happy Truck Thursday!
Running at track speed, Reading T-1 4-8-4 2102 storms through Linfield, Pennsylvania on the former Reading main line.
When I look at this image, I can hear the sounds of the city as if they were present in the room with me. I can hear the #17 lumber its way up the street and a car horn blare just out of fame. I can feel the warm sun in the chill air and smell the freshly baked bread still warm from the oven. I can feel the vibe of the city and it feels alive.
I love this city. Thank you for having me.

Happy Fence Friday! Lam's lumber is a large and very well run, successful local company. It has been run by the Lam family in Barboursville, Virginia since 1977.
The Eugene Hauler has finished switching Seneca in Noti, Oregon and takes off for Eugene with loaded centerbeams. Notice the little trees growing on the hills in the background where Seneca harvests its timber.
