Greetings, all. Last Sunday I began a trip that will take me to Jacksonville, Florida for a reunion. Gonna check out the neighborhood we used to live in back...
First, it is great to see a railroad actually using a caboose in daily operation! A rare sight these days. My question is....I noticed the MNRR caboose has...
Covered Hoppers still have roof walks, too. Cabooses are probably 'exempt' due to the fact you do need roof access from time to time. That's my guess. -- ...

It must be! We've been getting regular cuts of perlite off the Lake County in the PNWR yard in Albany. The placement is normally on the head-end of the ...
Good timimg - I didn't expect to find a train yesterday when I was going out for a day of photographing, but the train was just leaving Tule Lake for Alturas...
The photos are now posted on my site at http://craigsrailroadpages.com/modocnorthern/index.htm (along with my corrected math typo regarding the number of cars...

Cannot think of a better way to spend a Sunday afternoon, Craig! Wish I had been there myself, but your on line photo pages are the second best thing to that....
Thanks for the compliments everyone... I wouldn't want to hazard a guess as to train speed (Don would be the one to answer that) but track speeds vary so much...
Craig, thanks for the nice shots. It looked like a helluva chase. This leads to two questions: first, is the wye at Perez out of service, and/or blocked by...
To the best of my knowledge, the wye at Perez is still out of service. The MOW guys haven't had a chance to bring it into shape yet since there are plenty of...
I don't think I have posted on here yet but some of you may know me from various other RR related groups/forums on the internet. Today my friend Dan and I went...
Excellent photos, Kyle and Dan! After you left it, the train switched out cars in Klamath Falls and began its return toward Tule Lake with far fewer cars....
In the past several days we have had several new members join up. Glad you are here and looking forward to your participation! Please consider sharing some of...
Hey Craig, I added a couple to the MNRR gallery but I think I mis-labeled them in the process. If you would like them to be all in uniform feel free to change...
Nope, they're fine! If Fred wants to reorganize them he will. Thanks, Craig ... them in ... free to ... proper ... up. ... Please ... in our ... the...
Go ahead and post photos. I may reorganize the albums a little bit next January in an effort to keep things easy to find and access, partly because Yahoo made...
The 12/2006 issue of Trains Magazine has an article on the railroads from Donner Pass to Oregon which battle snow in the winter time, pages 48 to 57. The...
It is slightly southwest of the Cascades, but not by much. I am talking about the northern end of the California Northern Railroad. I have put together some...
The latest news regarding the Lake County Railroad is the acquisition of their operation by M.N.RR. We signed a lease on 01 Nov which conveyed all rights to...
Don, I'm sure this news will make some people in Lake County very happy. As background, I lived in Lakeview during 1985-86. There are a fair number of people...
Darn, The 700 turning green..... I grew up seeing that engine on the Columbia & Cowlitz. How long before she will be painted? Also, dose anyone have detial...
I recently went down to the Modoc Nothern tracks and snapped a few shots. I have a few shots of the 700. http://www.pbase.com/larsenisi/modoc Dan Larsen ...
