On behalf of a friend I was hoping someone might be able to help me identify the location of a mystery photo of a logging operation with a railroad. Campbellton Mills Fairbanks is at the lower right, photographer information at left.

Thanks for any help.

Joshua

I think the Fairbanks is a better clue, Fairbanks, Alaska, but it'll take more than a quick google.

I think theirs a book on logging railroads.

Some of my digs show one specific logging company had operating railroads but never showed up on the regular railroad registers as it was pretty much like some industrial lines running track but never find ways into the historical annals.

It may take some newspaper trackings like accidents to piece it down.
