Todd, to be in neutral the bottom fork should move to the left so that it lines up with the top fork.

Todd W: I'll repeat: the bottom one in the photo is in gear!! I'd say its in 3d gear if the front is to the left in the photo. To get that one out of gear, it must slide forward to its neutral point near the center line of the opening, then check that upper one (which may also be in gear) to make sure its also out of gear...Sometimes if the shifter is broken, the slide will look like its in the right place but the gear itself is still engaged... both sets of gears must out of gear (neutral) for the tractor to roll.

I believe it should look about like this, note the locations of both the forks AND the gears.
Kraig 's picture is what you need to see. Not in the center of the opening that is why there is a possibility it may be engagning two sets of gears at the same time. Looking at the distances between the fork mount on the rail and the case compared to Kraig's picture looks like both forks are out of netural position.
You may want to use a brass drift and tap on the gears themselves instead of the forks. Don't get to carried away. After rereading your posts, I definitely believe it is in two gears. The top left most gear set needs to go to the left and the top fork needs to go the right. May have to use the crow bar on the gears further down in the case. Start with the top gear and if it moves to neutral, the lower gear should move easire. They are working against each other. Would definitely check for chips. Good possibility that the gears shed a few chips as they locked together.

Todd. Instead of dragging that little Cub back to the woods why don't you just offer to give it to one of the good people here? I'm sure that someone would be glad to pick it up.
Looking at the bottom photo I would say it is stuck inbetween reverse and second gears.
Again looking at the bottom photo, the bottom slider would be 2nd & 3rd gears, & the top slider would reverse and 1st gear. Left to right.
It is my guess that trying to move the bottom shift lever in the direction indecated by the red arrow will only increase the problem.
I would try and slide the top shift to the left.
But than I aint there to get a real good look at the gears and how they are meshed together.

Charlie - That thing will take an acre to turn around in , like that OT dump truck I built.
Graeme - Your Cub ended up down there when Dorthy and Totto drove it to see the Wizard. It got impounded for no parking permit
Todd - Did ya get it yet ??
Myron - Fer what ?
David - I ended up working on my Toy 4x4. Seems I was able to find SAE brake line fittings in my <strike>junk</strike> inventory that NAPA didn't have

Yeah Ken, bout the only place I shop anymore is NAPA. There the only ones left around here that are still locally owned... But they never seem to have what I need, or take a while to find it.
Why SAE for the toy, I'd think that'll need 8~10mm fittings.

David - I had to adapt
I needed 1/8"P x 27 fitting

Well ol pops got his 1650 home last night it is snuggled right up next to the 1000. Good looking tractor, orginal owner had painted it once can live with that for awhile. Deck is good sharpen blades, new belt and it will be good to go.
Pops wish list: Tune up, tri-ribs front tires, 23X12X12 Firestone tractor tires, locate a rear lift kit then restore this winter.
Oh there is a 4th one coming but we will talk about that later.

BEN - The 12.00 X 12 'Stones are 26" in dia. Widest they make a 23" dia. tire is the 23-8.50 X 12. The 26" tires are a snug fit on a non- Super Garden tractor, Have to watch where You put Your fingers on the fenders when running... All the SGT's have the fender pans lifted about an inch or so.
