Steam-powered log winches were the answer until 1945, when they were replaced by mobile bulldozers.
Winches were placed at strategic locations along railroad lines. They were moved to a new work area when an area was cleared.
The steam winch crew was typically five men. Long ropes were run to the fallen logs by men called "ropeys." The ropey and steam winch operator communicated using whistle signals. See below.
