 When it arrived at the western end with the empty train, it would drop the empty cars off on a siding, then switch to the mainline to pull eleven filled cars out onto the line, drawing another eleven into the loading station.Once these were loaded the train left for the eastern end while the empty cars are pulled into the station by hand.At the eastern end the logs were simply rolled down into Nosbonsing, the entire operation taking two men only two and a half minutes.
