Even though the real Grant's Pass never was completed, it lives on as The Grants Pass Western.

Tie & Plank Mill
The inclusion of the Tie & Plank Mill at Jackpine Camp was just too much. It could not hold enough cars and switching was a chore, so out it comes, now where can it go, the extension at Grants Pass of course. With not much work it moved right in. After putting it in and adding new scenery, I noted that the log cars block the cars loaded with ties and planks. What to do? If a turnout will fit a track could be added to feed the logs on the left side of the structure, but this will necessitate moving the mill to the right, not at all impossible. Or the siding now used for both loading and unloading could be shortened and the only yard siding left could instead be used as the track to load ties and planks. Both are good options, I will think on it for a while.
