Say, if anyone happens by Wendel, how about taking a shot or two of the rail loading from the Susanville Branch into gondolas. Might be cool to catch the ...
Since both of the M.N.RR's GE's are sidelined with mechanical / electrical issues, Lake County Railroad No. 700 is doing the honors out of Tule Lake. While...
Any idea how long is this going to last? Furthermore, is 1100 their "normal" on duty time? When my friend Kyle and I saw them last mionth, the caboose...
I would say that 1100 is about the norm...They are usually on the way out of Tulelake by noon. They often seem to push the HOS to the edge, thus the late...

Greetings- Unless my memory is shot, this group never did figure out what happened to Lake County Railroad #1617. Now we know, thanks to a thread on the old...
I am not sure if this has been posted previously, but... I cruised through the Trains Unlimited Tours webpage tonight and noticed that the Oct 15-18 "Modoc...
Funny that no one caught the 1617's movement off of the MNRR. Can you fill me in on the St. Maries River shut down? You are welcome to email me if you'd ...
