This is likely to be the last major update for a little while as this site has been eating up a lot of my time and attention. This
update should finish out almost all of the new mapping efforts, and a lot of other long planned updates, changes, and additions have
been accomplished.

Today's update mostly incorporates a lot of mapping efforts that have been underway for a long time. Some of the pages
have only new maps, some have additional or revised information and new photos. I've also removed some old or broken
links to other websites. Any railroads that have not received better maps either today or in the last year or so will
be getting new maps in the future. The site also has a new banner image on the front page.

This round of updates completes the photographs provided by Wayne Monger, with these images focusing on the
Oregon Eastern Division of the Wyoming/Colorado Railroad. High Desert Rails also recently obtained a huge
collection of slides taken by the late John Henderson that feature many of the railroads covered in this
website. The first of these- images from the Condon, Kinzua & Southern Railroad- are included in this
round. The sheer volume of slides will keep us busy for years to come.
New pages in the Condon, Kinzua & Southern section:
Tracks in Thirty Mile Canyon
Tracks around Condon
Kinzua sawmill
Trackage around Kinzua Mill
Kinzua Enginehouse
Miscellaneous Maintenance-of-Way

In addition, the Condon, Kinzua & Southern/Kinzua Pine Mills front page has been extensively
re-worked, with much new information provided. Additional photos have also been added to the following
page:

The long-promised Sumpter Valley page is likely to come next, although we admit we have said that before.
The remainder of the John Henderson slides cover a wide variety of subjects, including the City of Prineville,
Oregon California & Eastern, Union Railroad of Oregon, Klamath Northern, Mt. Emily Lumber, and a huge volume of work of the
Union Pacific in the Blue Mountains and on the Condon Branch.
Thank you for looking!
