Logging Railroad Tips?

[Milwaukeeroad261]

Hey all, Milwaukeeroad261 here. Ive been working on two routes, my custom route (PRW&F) and a 30" Logging Railroad (Battle Creek Logging Company). Does anyone know any good lumber transfers that link 30" with standard gauge?
Also is there any logging dumps for trainz 30"?

Thanks,
AJ

I believe there is a log dry sort yard built into 2006, and if I remember correctly, the two tracks that service it automaticly turn into the same track you connect.

Log Loading

I have made some decks and landings to load/un-load logs here- http://ac-monkeywrench-models.yolasite.com/industry.php
Also have logs and log cars here- http://ac-monkeywrench-models.yolasite.com/products.php and http://ac-monkeywrench-models.yolasite.com/trains.php

As far as lumber transfer goes, Pencil42 made a really nice lumber transfer platform that transfers finished lumber from the narrow gauge side (the track actually changes to anything you attach to it, but it starts as 30" gauge track) to the standard gauge side (same deal as with the narrow gauge side). The standard gauge side then transfers general goods to teh narrow gauge side. It is available here: http://www.carsoncarshops.com/download_depots.htm or on the DLS under Lumber Transfer Platform.

As far as I know, the only way to get a log dump for 30" gauge in Trainz is to use one of the preexisting ones and lay 30in gauge rail only track over it, so that it looks like the train is on the 30in rails.
