[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by M.W. Hemphill</i> <br /><br />I appreciate the update on the OSL-OWR&N, Ryan. It's been years since I've had the opportunity to see it west of Pocatello. Medbury Hill is one of the great unremarked places in western railroading, in my opinion, and I'm happy to see that helpers out of Glenns Ferry still work it. Do they still ever run east up King Hill? <br /> <br />Any additional rundown on operations up there, and on the Washy, would be appreciated. Don't know what I'll do with it other than file it in my head, but someday it will be useful. <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />You're very welcome; i'm pleasantly surprised that I still remember much of that stuff. For the past year-and-a-half i've been trying to pu***he railroad stuff out of my head and replace it with lithic attributes and faunal analyses! :) I still occasionally get an update on the latest-and-greatest in the loco dept. (over a pint and a spot of lunch) from my good friends that remain on the 'inside'. I don't get over to Eastern Washington and the Washy Country all that often but like the shop, I still have a number of good friends that work the rails between Eastport and Hinkle. They call now and then to ensure that i'm applying myself and earning good grades. :)
