Unfortunately, the Yosemite Mountain Sugar Pine Railroad has been damaged by the fast moving fire at Fish Camp, California. The news footage from last night shows that we have lost the famous West Side snowplow and one of the West Side skeleton passenger cars.

I have attached a photo of the plow as she appeared in the West Side yards in Tuolumne in the early 1970's. Unfortunately she is now just a pile of ashes and metal.
