This is how it looked in the '30s.
(Somewhere, anyway. Certainly not here.)

It could look that way now (if you brought your own). But what the hell, a dream is a dream. The Owens Valley hasn't changed. We have an engine, cars, rails, the know-how, the talent, the enthusiasm. We need more of the same - always - and that item which is so hard for everyone to obtain - money.

Imagine boarding at Lone Pine or Keeler and taking this Route to Bishop, resting in luxurious sleepers, dining in the restaurant car, open-air viewing, stopping anywhere for photos and ATV excursions. It's a great dream. Lets try to make it happen. Please support us if you can, or E-mail us or, if you're old-fashioned, write to
