An incline car the engine, as we know it Sarry Parker, had a drum on it with a coil of steel rope (cables) and the men got hold of the end of this rope and dragged it to a large stump on the top of the hill, and they tied it around the stump, and then the engineer on the machine started the drum to rolling, and wound the cable up and by that method, the Sarry Parker was drawn over the incline bridge. Lewis Rhea aperated the machine.Elkmont, Tennessee, III-L-9407, History - Logging, Lumbering, Hewing, Sawmilling
