How a 65 mile section of the historic and rugged Siskiyou rail line in southern Oregon and northern California was opened using a mix of public and private funds, including $7 million in federal TIGER funds. Rail construction reopened the line that had been closed since 2008.
The project is a boost to regional shippers who relied on a lengthy rail service north to Eugene to meet the UP mainline for southern markets or use trucking.
