jOHN,
I am sorry you were not along for our drive from Prineville to Sumpter. After putting the Shay away, I had a number of our photogrpahers follow me to Sumpter. Begining at the SVRy Depot in Pairie City, I gave a tour from the road as we followed the SVRy right-of-way all the way to McEwen. Here we are at Whitney on the tour.
There is a lot of right-of-way to see and lots of Railroad relics slong the way if you know where to look.
