And now both locomotives used on the “Farewell to Steam” excursion are owned by Oregon Coast Scenic Railroad. #90 is currently in the process of being restored to operation, while #38 is I believe planned to eventually be returned to operation as well, though when that will be is unknown. It’s great that the two Rayonier sisters are reunited, with at least one (and hopefully both) to be steamed up again, chugging along the Oregon Coast and up the Nehalem River Canyon.
That's really cool how they would barge the engines up the river, thank you for showing more history around the area that I've live my whole life. Keep these great old movies coming,I love them.Do you know when they stoped using the rail roads around Forks Wash. ,Wish I could of been around to see those trains in action.
im glad you like this Jonathan. im not sure about the rail line out your way if i ever get info about that Ill let you know. I'm with you there, i wish to be a little older to have seen half of this cool stuff when it was an everyday thing
Great Sounds 👍 so wish I was there.. Awesome Era and equipment.. EPIC failure to Hoquiam loosing all this history and line.. could have been huge attraction for this area.. and completely removed from town.. such a huge loose

You and me both!
I believe I own this video 😍😍
This is what I had a CD of alongside 30 other Railroad videos. I’ve tried to find it on that CD and I have failed.
Do you happen to have anything on logging in the Quilcene area in the 50s and 60s ?
at this point i dont, sorry .
I like Number 38 it’s a shame that she is in the condition that she’s currently in today
Good news buddy. That entire collection was sold to a museum recently and there's plant to re-assemble the 38.
@@engineerskalinera yay which museum is it?

These videos are so awesome! My kind of educational film brother! Lol. When did they shutdown the Simpson line? 1983?
i honestly cant remember. they just shut down the matlock to shelton run 15 years ago I think.
What a sad day
Yes I agree completely.
I shoveled coal on Baldwins as a young man
Wow that’s neat. How many years ago was that
