The virgin timber harvest yielded gigantic logs, which were very difficult to remove from the bottomlands where they were cut. Several small logging railroads solved the problem for many loggers of this era. One such line, the Bonnerville and Southern (later the Frisco), ran from the little community of Algoa in eastern Jackson County north through Amagon, Estico, and Grubbs and on to Jonesboro.
