Steam & Excursion > Updated "Skunk" InfoDate: 04/25/16 22:34 Updated "Skunk" Info Author: lynnpowell This is a update on the "Skunk" info from April 8 and 9. I was in Fort Bragg this weekend and did ride the train. They had GP9 #65 pulling a four car train, only up to the tunnel four miles out of town. They run Sat, Sun, Mon, Wed, Fri, 11:00 AM and 1:00 PM, with a 3:00 PM trip to be added on certain days during the summer. The landslide problem continues, but they have a contractor to tackle the problem when things dry out. 2-8-2 is undergoing it's mandatory federal 15-year rebuild, so it won't be running during 2016.
I didn't get to Willits, so I don't know what equipment is being used for the single 4-1/2 hour roundtrip from there. Date: 04/26/16 10:15 Re: Updated "Skunk" Info Author: SierraRail GP9 #64 and M100 motorcar are running out of Willits. GP9's #65 & #66, M300, and #45 (2-8-2) are all trapped in Fort Bragg.
