Carl Franz has been showing off logging trains on the Cass for over 20 years. In cooperation with the Cass Scenic Railroad of West Virginia, he has run logging trains through the woods, up switchbacks, and with double headed trains!
The Spectaculars ran in spring, fall and winter. Carl, along with his friend Robert Flack, captured some of the most fantastic material ever shot of logging trains on 16mm film. In this DVD you will see Shay's #2, #3, #4, #5, and Heisler #6 work logging trains up to lofty Bald Knob (4,842 ft.).
You'll also witness action with Western Maryland Shay #6 on the Durbin branch, (the now extinct ex-C&O Greenbriar branch). The winter shots are really spectacular, some in blinding blizzards!...and the spring and fall shots will also take your breath away!
Beside breathtaking runbys, there is action of each of these trains filmed from special photo trains, as well as the traditional all steam train race near the Cass station! There are NO tourist trains in these shots...just logging trains!
In addition, this DVD includes more than 15 minutes of film from the predecessor to the Cass, the Mower Lumber Company. This 16mm color footage shows actual logging operations of Mower and other footage from Cass, shot by photographer Robert Flack!
The Mower Company footage includes log loaders and skidders, log trains being loaded, switched, dumped, and logs being dragged by the 'green chain' into the mill!... in fact just the Mower footage is worth the price of this DVD!!!...its that good!

I had this on VHS and played it so many times the tape wore out. Will be buying a DVD replacement for sure!
Thanks very much, we are glad you enjoy the video!
You've got yourself a buyer right here.
there is nothing cooler to watch than a gear driven loco, especially the Shay my favorite very cool
It’s interesting how they managed to make A Standard Gauge Railroad up a Mountain. Normally, Logging Railroads are Narrow Gauge.
thank you so much for posting this. I have been looking for this for ever. I used to have this film and watch it. It has brought so many memories back
I have this video - it's really quite enjoyable. It combines both vintage footage and more modern films into one. Well worth the current sale price.
It's said a Shay will follow two tracks scratched in the mud with a stick.
I love the old steam locomotives--the sound, the big black puffs of smoke, and the happy feeling it gives me, especially when hauling logs.
I have been in the cab of Shay 11, 5, 6, the currently owned inoperable 3 and Heisler 6 (blew its whistle)
I have this tape

GreenFrogVideos 1975-1995 was 20 years back then, making the 70's young. Then 1975 to 2005 was 30. Now 1975 to 2015 is 40 years, with the 1995 footage at 20! Now the 1970's are very old, and a very LONG TIME!
I used to have this DVD but then I lost it
Amazing footage and magnificent logging locomotives and trains. Very nice, indeed! :)
Thumbs up and greetings

Some Shay locomotives caring lumber trains.
Don't know what their burning, but in my neck of the woods black smoke means oxygen starvation. and incomplete combustion.
What's the music at the beginning called?
Lot of black smoke. That fireman needs some lessons.
Like you could do better? It’s done that way on purpose to make for more interesting photos
I don't see America having the balls these men had to doing anything like this today what it took 150 years to build Environmentalist has stopped in just 30 years never to be seen again. Now they just let the forest BURN in uncontrolled wild fires.
Too much phony black smoke. A real RR wouldn't never have allowed it. This is not being honest.
Who is doing the firing should be fired! All black smoke all the time means poor firemanship. Just for the photos? A big "F"!
Greg Smith is a big “F”!
Have you ever fired a locomotive?
