Shelburn, Oregon - April 2002
Shelburn is where the SP&S Brownsville line and the Espee Mill City branch
intersected. In times past there was a town and depot here.
Now there's not much left besides a broken down shed and an unusual steel
water tank for the steam locomotives that used to tread these rails. Two
legs of the crossing are gone. Albany & Eastern runs trains to
Mill City on this track twice weekly. A recent, state assisted, tie replacement program kept
the line open but the speed limit on this track is less than 20mph in many places.
