caption_attribution_description: English: In the 1890s Camp Five was a logging camp of the Connor Lumber Company near Laona in northern Wisconsin. Later it became a company farm which produced food for Connor's logging camps. Today it is a living history museum accessed via the train pictured, and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
context_page_description: The Lumberjack Steam Train is a passenger excursion train operated on the Laona and Northern Railway, a heritage railroad located in Laona, Wisconsin and part of the Camp 5 Museum. It is operated by the non-profit Camp 5 Museum Foundation, Inc. The train runs 3 miles from the outskirts of Laona to the museum site.
  The train consists of the steam locomotive, two steel passenger coaches, and three cabooses.
  The locomotive, named the "4-spot," is a 2-6-2 steam locomotive built in 1916 by the Vulcan Iron Works in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania. It served as engine #12 on the Fairchild and North-Eastern Railway until it was leased in 1920 to the Wisconsin Central. The Laona and Northern bought it September 22, 1926 to haul timber from nearby logging camps to their mill in Laona. At 109,600 pounds, it is said to be the largest steam engine built by Vulcan that is still operating in the U.S.
  The American Car and Foundry Company built the coach named the “Hamilton Roddis” in 1923 for the Soo Line Railroad. The Barney and Smith Company built the coach named the “Otter Creek” in 1911, also for the Soo Line Railroad. It was rebuilt in 1941.

  The three passenger cabooses were purchased in 1965 and 1966 from the Duluth, Missabe and Iron Range Railway. Two cabooses have cupolas and offer “up in the trees” views of the passing forest. The third caboose is Soo Line Railroad caboose number 147.
