A nice little tourist railroad near Oakhurst, California
at the foot of Yosemite National Park, just off the famous
state route "49". In addition to this 4-wheel chain drive loco...
-
...They have this Shay locomotive - which we did not get to ride behind.
-
Notice that even the tender is geared for better traction.
-
The benches on the riding cars are made from logs, hogged out with chainsaws.
-
The trip is neither very long, nor particularly scenic.
There is lots of old equipment lying around to look at.
-
It just kind of winds around through the woods.
-
See what I mean?
-
At least the twins had fun playing on the old equipment.
