After the YVRR closed for business the equipment and rolling stock were
scraped or sold. Boxcar 609 was sold to a farmer near Merced, detrucked
and used as a storage shed. Over sixty plus years it has deteriotated and
over grown by trees and bushes.
The proposed Yosemite Gateway Railroad Museum has been given the remains of the 609 and it is their hope to restore it to its original state. |
