Question about the correct English name for an object

I'm making some new objects related to the timber industry, a kind of log loader or unloader for flatcars. They are purely decorative and non-functional.
These new objects are loosely based on the Log Skid Full kuid:44700:28001 from Trainzone.co.nz.
Since English isn't my first language, I'd like some advice on:
What would be the most accurate and appropriate English name for this object?

Francisco,

My suggestion is to use the phrase "Log skid" at the start of the names, so that anyone looking for such assets will see yours grouped alphabetically next to the similar assets made by creator 44700.

Mi sugerencia es utilizar la expresión “Log skid” al comienzo de los nombres, de modo que cualquiera que busque ese tipo de assets vea los tuyos agrupados alfabéticamente junto a los assets similares creados por el autor 44700.

I would agree that "Log Skid" in the name to match other similar items. From memory there are quite a few items that use the name skid relating to timbers logs or lumber that are in position to be slid along such as what you show or huts on skids that have a similar name. You can then add a multitude of search terms to include "rack", "logging", "lumber", "timber", "wood" and other relevant key words that might help someone find
