The Rainier Rambler RailsNW is pleased to present one of the first trips out on the newly reopened line from Elbe, WA across the Nisqually River bridge. This exclusive charter onboard the Mt. Rainier Scenic Railroad will feature two steam locomotives- a doubleheader- as we take you past Mineral and Divide to a turnaround at one of the largest wooden trestles in the Northwest. We expect to feature both the Rayonier #2, a Willamette geared engine which just returned to service last summer, as well as another of the MRSR collection. If it completes its restoration in time, we may be taking out the Rayonier #70, a Baldwin 2-8-2 rod locomotive; backup is most likely the Hillcrest Lumber #10, a Climax geared engine, but final motive power is at the discretion of railroad personnel. A minimum of three photo runbys have been scheduled and more will be added if time permits. A full catered BBQ meal is included on the return trip to complete your day at the Mineral Lake pavillion. An open car will be part of our consist to enjoy the fresh air and unparalleled views. As this trip is limited to less than 100 passengers, we highly recommend making your reservations ASAP.
