Quotations
1942
"What's the brow log?" . . . "It's a big log we set alongside the track," he said. "Between the empty car and the pile on the landing. Makes sure the logs ride up over the car instead of smacking into it and knocking it off the track. It's handy for the loaders too; makes a sort of step up or down for us."
