Here's a photo I took on April 18, 1996, TWENTY-SEVEN years ago, of a "rare mileage" special train operated by Clark Johnson and Nona Hill's
High Iron Travel company that ran on the Coos Bay Branch of the then-Central Oregon and Pacific Railroad, which was a spin-off of a Southern Pacific branch line. This was when CORP was still operating the line to Coos Bay and before it was owned by Genesee & Wyoming. G&W's locomotives with their distinctive paint scheme had yet to show up on the property.
This was a photo run-by we had on the return trip to Eugene in an area that is pretty much only accessible by rail. If anyone recognizes where this location is down to the nearest milepost or siding, I'd be interested in knowing that.
