Description: In the background, on the right, we see the sorting storage building of the Kedgwick Fraser sawmill. Photo taken on August 11th, 1970. The building on the left is where the transformed "2 x 4" and "2 x 6" softwood lumber was stacked before being shipped by train. Notice the overpass ramp through which wood chips were blown into Canadian National freight cars.
