I suppose the location of the photograph would be dispositive..

Re: Got wood?
I'm gonna go with Rufus on this. The first picture shows steel rails with widely spaced ties, and to me, that indicates lightweight cars such as hand cars for ore or clay or possibly coal but where there was no access for heavier equipment, and that it was used to get the product out to where they could make the connection to other modes of transportation.
Pic two appears to be exactly what Rufus said; an abandoned wooden roller coaster. Note how the rails appear to be flat steel re-enforced by 4" x 6"s along the sides, plus the other structure on the left appears to have the same type of construction as many wooden coasters. And the vegetation? Yeah, it doesn't take Mother Nature long to take over.

If you agree with the Progressives, it's freedom of speech. If you disagree, it's hate speech. There are no alternatives.

Yeah, Nature can have an amazing effect in your average fiord, while a glacier is moving, and especially in its amazing, apparent effects once melted away.

Now Murph, that's not funny.
Just think about where you could get them.

IMHO they are lacking an essential element of good sense.

Uh huh, and I know exactly what they would be wearing for that extra stimulation . And you say they would have to pay extra for that?
Quite the party.
All the participants could possibly need further might be an appearance by the President of Freedonia and Mrs.Teasdale .

Well, you gotta have a paying audience so you know it's all worthwhile! Get your tickets from Chicolini. He may talk like an idiot and look like an idiot, but don't let that fool you - he really is an idiot
