Although today most pulp wood is hauled as chips, during the 1940s thru the 1960s railroads hauled a lot of pulp logs in open pulp racks. Unfortunately the model log loads that either come with cars or are sold as accessories leave a lot to be desired. In this video I'll show you how to make your own log loads that look just like the real thing. These do take a bit of work but the final product is well worth the effort.
Here’s an additional tip-don’t go heavy on the glue. Since you are applying multiple lines on every 2-3 layers it will work its way down and may ooze out the sides or bottom of the load making a mess. If anything the last application below the top layer of the logs can be a little heavier since it needs to glue down all the logs up there. Also, I don’t wait between applications for the glue to dry, I just keep adding logs and more glue until I am done with the entire load. Have fun!
