Dennis DeBruler This was a Southern Pacific route, so UP would have acquired it. Since it was (1928) just a branch that started at Eugene and went down to Powers, does UP still own it or did they sell it to a shortline?
Warren Caudle Last I saw, the Port of Coos bay has the line from Eugene to Coos Bay. The original line went all the way to Powers.
Randy King I think they lease it from UP still... But they (CBR) have to maintain it...
