Opening Day Delayed !
The Iron Mountain Railway
St. Louis Iron Mountain &
Southern Railway

Our opening day was postponed one week due to recent record rains and flooding.

We opened Saturday, April 12, 2008



Cutting branches from trees that were broken after the first ice storm.

YouTube Video of using the caboose to pull down a tree tangled in vines.

 


Clearing a wider path to get the train through.

No sooner had we cleared the track after a second major ice store, than we received 12" of rain flood much of the track and washing away the rock "ballast" from under the ties.
