Rumor has it the UP is seriously considering using the Siskiyou Route again, running smaller cars and locos that will traverse the curves and fit tunnels. The reason given is the slide outside Oakridge is going to take an extended length of time to clear and stabilize and UP can relieve some of the freight pressure.
I repeat ... this is a rumor only, but heard via a reliable UP employee.
You gotta admit though, it would be great to see some frequent use of that line again. Lends some great railfaning.
