A large rock had caused a tunnel collapse. 128 years running! I never heard of the line before seeing this article.
Were you aware of this line and/or the issue they overcame?

ive known about the "skunk line" for maybe 25 years? ridden on it several times! planing a trip north at the end of sept. gonna ride again!
The California Western (aka the "Skunk Train") is one of the best tourist train rides in California, IMO. Beautiful scenery going through the Mendocino forests.
I heard about the tunnel collapsing, hope they are able to raise the needed funds to get it repaired so operations all the way to Willits can continue.
Yay!! (but "rail cruiser"??? gimme a break!) I have visited Fort Bragg several times, but
have never timed it to ride the train...have gotten there after it left. As a reader of
assorted railroad oriented publications, I have known about it for decades, with those
visits spread out over them.
