I just can't help it; when I found these photos from a speech my father, Sam Lindsey Jr., gave, I had to make some wallpapers to share. All these photos are 1024 pixels in size; I gave up trying to customize all the photos. Please use these as wallpapers on your computer for free; if you want to use any of these photos for any other purpose, please contact me before doing so.

Starting off with a huge gum log. Notice that there are 3 wagon bolsters under this log. Of course, there was the attempt to use the wagons with mechanical power. These logs were harvested in 1924. Note the poles under the logs; they were used for loading.

Just a nice load of Yellow Pine with oxen providing the pulling power. Double wagons being pulled. Notice the tractor operator and where he is sitting. Also, there is the rear of a car on the very far right. A 4 wagon train. I think this was taken in Honduras because of the thatched huts in the background. But I have never seen a tractor like that before.

This looks more like East Texas. The lead tractor is pulling 3 wagons and there is a tractor behind it. Early wagon trailer for truck. Notice the railroad cars behind the contraption. Also notice the number of spokes in the wheels of the trailer. Here is an all-metal version of the wagon. I don't think that this ever really worked out or went into production.

For you railroad fans, there is not a trace of a wagon in this photo. Note the loader on the back of the train.
