The Meadows and Lake Kathleen railroad is approximately 99% complete on 41 acres near Deadwood, Oregon. While it may not be the most perfect railroad in the world, it is one of the greenest and most beautiful partially due to the average 100+ inches of rain it receives......hence the 3 creeks with trout populations and the 14 year-round springs.Owners Ray and Kathy Robinson are working on their 12th year with help from many, many friends putting the railroad together. The M&LK RR currently consists of 4 bridges, 4 trestles and a tunnel with just over 6,200 feet of 18 inch gauge track and an elevation difference of just under 20 feet. The railroad has a 5,290 foot main line with three sidings, a balloon track, a few spur tracks and eventually will have a turn table and depot.
On Saturday, October 13th, 2007, at NOON, we drove the "Golden Spike" celebrating completion of the railroad as envisioned so many years ago.
We realize it will never be finished..........We still have a lot we would like to do and then there is the never ending maintenance.
