Looks a lot like the big trestle bridge on the Oakhurst Railroad ...

Just a little "minor" damage! A little super glue will fix it. Happy Holidays from the Oakhurst Railroad.

Happy Thanksgiving from all of us at Yosemite Mountain Sugar Pine Railroad! Have a wonderful and safe holiday and we'll see you this weekend!

Travel to the forests just outside Yosemite National Park to visit a very special steam train. Since the early 1960's the Yosemite Mountain Sugar Pine Railroad ...has hauled tourists over a portion of rebuilt logging railroad in Fish Camp, California. In this video, we will see these very unique "Shay" logging locomotives pulling trains among the sugar pine trees. All aboard! See more

Tree trimming in the back yard. A big deal for the garden railway as I had to move all of the buildings clear of the dropping limbs. Looks like no damage was done to the track, but still some cleanup needed before trains can run again.

Great video on the history of logging inclines in the area. I don't have any inclines on my model railroad though. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a4_mJuS9WWc&feature=youtu.be
