| Remarks & Notes |
| Cass Scenic Railroad's 103-ton Shay Number 11 whistles the Logging Road Crossing at MP 2.9 as she drifts downhill with a log train. Number 11 is a transplant to the Eastern United States, having operated on the west coast from 1923 until 1965. She served both the Hutchinson Lumber Company and the Feather River Railway before ending up as a static display in a museum in San Diego in 1967. Nearly 30 years later, she was acquired by Cass Scenic Railroad and restored for use on their excursion trains, where she can be found today. The former Feather River #3 also has a sister that is still in operation. Feather River #2 hauls excursion trains on the famed Sierra Railroad at Railtown 1897 in California. |
