In the early '70s I would be found every summer working on a wheat ranch outside of Pendleton where I was born and grew up until high school. The ranch was owned by my father's friend Bob Mumm. He was involved with the SVRR to some degree. He had business cards similar to the current icon or thumbnail. I never did find out what happened with Bob and his efforts to get the RR viable again. Anyone with a bit more information can lemme know here.
I started volunteering on the svry this year. It's amazing to see a bit of the past!
Thank you nice story. A lot of work referbing those old iron horses .🇺🇸🇺🇸

Absolutely the best video I ever played on utube . Beautifully done and very informative.
Hope the Current WestCoast Firestorms haven't reached the Sumpter Valley Rwy.
Great video of a marvelous Restoration.
Fascinating video.
Ah, the old days with the old shed, when wood burning Heisler 3 was the star of the show.

Would I get a Sumpter discount to ride the train?
