Apparently the Mount Hood Railroad has advertised, as of last weekend, trains running from Hood River to Odell (not to Parkdale), twice a day on weekends. However tickets cannot be purchased online, all tickets must be purchased via telephone. The schedule shows trains running through the end of April.
Does anyone know if MH is actually running trains or not, or if someone is playing around with the website? My understanding was all the personnel was laid off, and nearly all of the rolling stock (and both locomotives) are no longer property of the MH, Permian Basin Railways or Iowa Pacific, so did they re-acquire the locomotives and/or sign a lease for them?
I keep checking the STB website to see if there has been a change in control but so far nothing...
