Yreka Westerns Alco MRS-1 brings a load of veneer out of the Timber Products Mill in April 2007, Trucks now do the honor as the railroad is no more.

If this RR was still operating, I would imgaine the trains heading over Siskiyou Pass would double in length from 6-8 cars to 12-16.  Anything helps.  It was very sad to see the YW shut down.

Any comments from the crew on what it was like switching with that machine compared to the SW8?
