The train that used to follow the Frazier River part of the way from Vancouver to Dawson Creek made a meal stop at a logging camp. I was a young lad and was amazed to see the quantity of food the loggers were able to put away and go right out to work.

This was in the day when chainsaws were new and heavy and much of the work was still done with single and double buck crosscut saws.

My Dad guessed they ate about 3,000-3,500 calories at breakfast.

The "train" consisted of the independently powered Budd RDC cars that were dropped or added along the way. The overnight stop in Prince George was memorable in that it was a wide open frontier town akin to a modern Dodge City or Tombstone.

Trivia note, the "train" occasionally incurred stoppages due to small landslides in remote canyons along the river. The conductor would call for all able bodied persons to grab a shovel from the belly of one of the cars and turn to clearing the tracks. We were detained long enough at one point that we ran out of food and lived the last couple days on a jar of strawberry jam and tea. They had an endless supply of tea for some reason.
