Norgrove Railway
by admin on Oct.30, 2022, under SLORRM
We had a great time at Norgrove Railway today. I won an auction item at the SLO Railroad Museum for a private tour of Norgrove which we managed to squeeze in while we were in California. It’s a brand-spankin’ new 600mm (just under 2′) gauge railroad being built near Highway 101 that winds through a vineyard and citrus orchard, focusing on superbly refurbished railroad equipment including a WWI trench engine. They’re working on the last 10% of the mainline which includes a bridge over a small ravine.

All Aboard!
The rails of a railroad track are kept shiny on the top by the regular passage of trains. Thus, "To Shiny Rails" is the battle cry of my personal effort to keep railroading activities of all kinds available to as many people as possible. It's tantamount to exclaiming "Keep those trains a rollin'!". And with any luck at all, I'll personally be on as many of those trains as possible! To shiny rails, Jamie
