The Englewood Railway is a private railway owned by Western Forest Products and is the last logging railway in existence in North America.
To move its logs to Beaver Cove, the Englewood Division utilizes a combination of rail and truck transportation. In the woods, logs are loaded onto logging trucks for transport down the steep hillsides to the valley bottom where the railway line is located. There are four collection points or reloads, along the railway line: Vernon, Maquilla, Woss, and Camp A. Trucks take the logs to the closest reload site, where they are off-loaded, weighed for volume, and reloaded onto rail cars. The distance from end of track at Vernon to Beaver Cove is 122 km (76 miles).
