I’m behind on updating the Cascade Branch thread, due to chasing lost cats, etc. I will update in soon, though:

Things have moved along rapidly. I decided to go ahead and lay down track for the main all the way to Crater Lake. Past Purgatory, it’s one long spur, but eventually it arrives at the quarry.
I gave my DL535E a run at things, but I have a couple of curves that it has a problem with due to the 3-axle trucks. And that long RPO is not well-suited . But it sure looks good at Crater Lake Junction.
Downgrade from Summit:
More soon.
