Forest Timber Cut Threatens Carrolls Woods Legacy
A Maryland forest known as Toll’s Woods is being cleared for railroad timber. An expert estimate says ten to twelve million feet of white oak will vanish, threatening wildlife and a historic landscape once part of Carroll’s lands. The operation by Fleming, aided by Pennsylvania railroad interests, moves from Catonsville toward Frederick, with bridges and rails relying on the oak.
