speeder excursions on Pickering Lumber Corp. trackage
Author: cc51

A while back there was a post by 28hogger (i believe) asking for information about the speeder rides offered by the Lyons Lake Resort. These ran from East Ave. in Twain Harte to Lyons Lake. I recently ran across 2 flyers describing the rides as well as some history of the line. Not sure when these were printed but I would guess the late 1960's.Soon I will post a few more flyers for some early PLA excursions.                       -C. Collins

They were not running by the time we ran the Sugarpine on Labor Day, 1971.

I know that. In fact the guy that operated the speeder runs was up there that weekend and he gave me a tour of the line below Long Siding to Hwy 108
