Top : Themes : Logging : Arcadia & Betsey River Ry.

Arcadia & Betsey River Ry.

Logging in the Pacific Northwest in HO Scale C. 1956. The tracks extend from Arcadia to Eagle Harbor, a distance of about 12 “smiles”. Along the way there is a truck-to-rail reload and a skyline operation with a hayrack for loading the company’s skeleton log cars.

There is also a branch line at Harbor Junction that extends the rails to Hill Camp and Camp 2 in the mountains above Eagle Harbor where two more sides supply the mill with logs. Located near Camp 2 is the Bottom Line Mine and the A&BR moves the mines ore and other freight between the mine and Arcadia.

At Eagle Harbor there is a landing where rafts of logs, cut on a nearby island, are loaded onto rail cars for the journey to the mill. Also located at Eagle Harbor is a branch line to Camp 3 and a railroad car ferry operation which creates bridge traffic for the A&BR between Eagle Harbor and the railroad interchange in Arcadia.
