Property Description
The 57-acre museum displays rare equipment and buildings dating back to the early 1900s. The collection includes three steam locomotives, the roundhouse, and a belt-and-shaft driven machine shop. Two rare McGiffert log loaders and a Clyde skidder are examples of early steam logging equipment. A ride on a rare M-4 Railbus along 2 miles of standard gauge track makes this a trip of a lifetime. The Museum offers a rare opportunity to glimpse the "golden age" of lumbering and sawmilling.
