"Before the modules were built the tracks crossed highway 101, the CWR super skunk train would back their train across highway 101. After turning their train and wait there until it was time to pull down to the depot and load and depart."

"Sherwood branch, I'm not sure about, it did go across the Hiway, and then the modules (lodging) was built up there behind those trees."

"I have seen the very SP car you're talking about-Daylight on one side, Lark Grey on the other. I think a tourist website company owns it, but I don't remember what it was called for sure.

"It may not be here much longer, I understand that the museum is purging all non WP/SN/UP or subsidary roads equipment. That may have something to do w/ THA getting the 4 SP commute cars that were here.

Profile Information
- How did you learn about the NWPRR Network?
- internet search for nwp. off capdiamont's blog I think.
- Favorite NWP locomotive or piece of rolling stock, if you have one?
- SF&NW#5=NWP#152/#352=Athearn N Scale Mogul FTW!
My Website - PacificIronHorse.com
For those interested, you may wish to check out my website at pacificironhorse.com for more train related stuff!
It is still a work in progress, but I plan to have a gallery of my own photography up soon, (1400 train related pics and counting!), as well as an e-commerce set-up for the wooden trains I build with my son. Later I hope to offer N and O scale kits and details in white metal and resin, although it may be awhile before I have anything in that category I consider commercially viable!
The site also includes links to my favorite internet sites, so please stop by and poke around! Don't forget to leave me a comment and tell me what you think!
Happy Railroading!

Thanks, Jim! I will let you know next time I go to Sacramento. I was about 5 last time I was at CSRM, and I didn't appreciate it as much as I would today! Dad started filming, but the camcorder died about 10 minutes in, so we don't have too much of it on film! I would definitely want to see the Placerville branch, too, when I go down there. In the meantime, I have plans to go hiking on the old ROW in Fortuna and the surrounding areas with fellow member Eldon Whitehead, whenever the weather gets nice again! I'll be taking photos of any interesting finds along the tracks and posting here. Keep in touch!
Regards,
Zachary M. Toler

Thanks, it was nice to meet you. I enjoy running into someone while away from home that knows my area and has things in common with me. Rod

Lawrence LaBranche said… - Hopefully, this works. I got a reply back this morning, "All seats on all runs have been sold out for a month. There will be a 10 passenger speeder visiting from Medford on the same schedule. We have not taken reservations for these seats; if someone wants to show up and see if seats are available, they are welcome to try."

- Thanks Jim. I have more photos of Japanese trains, including some video. I was over & back many times between 1998 & 2008 with Fulbright.
We have a cabin in Monte Rio, built in 1916. Most of the goodies inside came in on the train & some of the crates were used in the construction (stencils on the wood). It's been a joy to renovate the place.
