Today l worked on (dunno if you call this scratch-building, if using plans from an almost completed logging bunkhouse kit to build a matching cook house) the cookhouse. Exterior walls with windows and doors cut, as is floor. Building the subframe under the floor that sits on two skid logs. Wonder how loggers skidded these...with crawler tractors, locomotives along side the track, or "20 mule teams" before crawlers? These are about twice as wide as a flatcar. Can't picture these on a flatcar, when the car itself might be too wide to more than barely get over some of the logging roads in photos
