Description
The Oregon Coast Scenic Railroad (OCSR) is a steam-powered heritage railroad, operating in Oregon, primarily between Garibaldi and Rockaway Beach, with additional special trips to Wheeler, Nehalem River and into the Salmonberry River canyon. The railroad travels on tracks that pass along the edge of Tillamook Bay and the Oregon Coast, and through thick forest along the Nehalem River. The OCSR runs its collection of vintage rail equipment over 46 miles of former Southern Pacific Transportation Company track.The railroad currently operates two steam locomotives in regular service. One of these is the Curtiss Lumber Company No. 2, a Heisler locomotive, which is a geared steam locomotive, and the other is the former McCloud Railway No. 25 (see photo 'Engine 25'), a 2-6-2 type made by the American Locomotive Company. This locomotive was used in the movie Stand by Me. Both engines were originally used in the early 20th century for logging.
