Re: Ernest " Shack " Borgnine passes away...
Oregon Pacific & Eastern out of Cottage Grove, Oregon. Abandoned in 1994. Turned into a bike trail. The bridges on the line and shown in the movie still exist. The railroad shops shown in the movie were the OP&E shops that existed until torn down a few years ago.
A really old and outdate page of mine here has some info and photos...
