Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Yosemite Valley Railroad was constructed as a badly needed conveyance to Yosemite Valley in the days before the automobile. Visitation to Yosemite had been small, and the federal government wished to introduce the new park system to the public. A railroad through the Merced River Canyon from Merced was the answer to the challenging terrain. Thousands of acres of virgin timber forest and other natural resources along the way supported the building and operation of this rail line. From l906 until World War II, timber, gold, barium, limestone, freight, and visitors rode the rails to Yosemite National Park on this line.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pause before you enter Yosemite National Park! Come and Ride the Logger, a steam train from another era. This is the story of the Yosemite Mountain Sugar Pine Railroad, its beginnings, its history, its operation, and its locale. To ride the Logger is to experience a time in the history of California when the Sierra Nevada rang with the sound of axes, the roar of the sawmill, and the whistles of the steam trains. The Shay locomotives, the most powerful narrow gauge engines of their time, hauled dozens of loaded cars up steep grades and through tight turns other trains could not make, while the forests were clear-cut to build the towns and cities of California and the United States. The Yosemite Mountain Sugar Pine Railroad has been running for 54 years, giving patrons the experience of riding the steam train through the Sierra Nevada National Forest.
