4L List, The Loyal Legion of Logged-on Loggers
The 4L List, The Loyal Legion of Logged-on Loggers; dedicated to the dissemination of information regarding logging prototypes and models. We will cover all aspects of the industry, from actual logging, to sawmilling and their attendant railroads; in other words, anything that is of interest to logging fans. The dates we will cover are roughly 1800 to present. We will cover all areas of the world as well, as most areas had logging, in fact, it would appear only Antarctica is off limits to us!

Clark Kinsey Collection - University of Washington
Clark Kinsey's work as a photographer documented a vital aspect of the Pacific Northwest's economic and industrial history. Raised near Snoqualmie, Washington, Clark first practiced photography in the early 1890's with his brothers Darius and Clarence. During the Yukon Gold Rush, Clark and Clarence operated a studio in Grand Forks, where they remained for several years. About 1906, Clark returned to Seattle to operate a contracting business throughout the Northwest until shortly before World War I. From that time he returned to photography and spent the rest of his career documenting the logging and milling camps and other forest related activities in Washington, Oregon, California, and British Columbia. He was said to be the official photographer for the West Coast Lumberman's Association, and it is believed that he made approximately 50,000 negatives until his retirement in 1945. The images presented here comprise only a part of his life's work as a photographer.

Eastern Loggers Model Railroad Club
In 1981, Jerry Stangarity and John Burchnall founded the Eastern Loggers Model Railroad Club. The idea was to build a sectional layout based on the 13 book series, The Logging Railroad Era of Lumbering in Pennsylvania, by Walter Casler, Thomas Taber, and Benjamin Kline. Actually, a few years earlier, Jerry had built a diorama of a typical Pennsylvania Logging town, a not so common modeling concept. The club was just an extension of that.
