I took a trip up to Medford Oregon last month in an attempt to chase CORP's Medford to Hornbrook Turn over the Siskiyous. That train never ended up running, so I ended up putting around the Rouge River Valley shooting a couple of CORP Locals. A fun day for sure, but not the trip I was looking forward to.
Digging around more online after the trip I found that the Hornbrook Turns (both from Medford and Weed, CA) *may* have still been running at night due to dry conditions. Curious if anyone can pass along current operations info for the Hornbrook Turns. I would like to give shooting these another go, probably some time early next year, but dont really wanna burn another vacation day striking out on plan A.
Below are a few photos from the trip. If anyone want to see some more I've put the whole mess in an album on flickr located here:
