The '''Mt. Rainier Scenic Railroad''' or MRSR, formerly the Mt. Rainier Railroad and Logging museum (MRRR), is a steam-powered [[heritage railway|heritage railroad]] operating in the [[U.S. state]] of [[Washington (state)|Washington]] between [[Elbe, Washington|Elbe]] and [[Mineral, Washington|Mineral]]. The railroad travels on trackage that passes through thick forest just south of [[Mount Rainier]]. The depot, gift shop and ticket office are located in Elbe. The train travels to the Logging Museum exhibits located in Mineral. The MRRR ran its collection of vintage rail equipment over {{convert|7|mi|abbr=off|sp=us}} of track, part of [[Tacoma Rail|Tacoma Rail's]] Mountain Division.
The railroad has three [[steam locomotive|steam engines]], as well as a diesel locomotive in regular service, along with several other locomotives of both types of engines. Most of the railroad's engines are [[geared steam locomotive|geared steam engines]]. These specialized types of steam engines&nbsp;— [[Shay locomotive|Shay engines]], [[Heisler locomotive|Heisler engines]], [[Climax locomotive|Climax engines]] and a [[Willamette locomotive|Willamette engine]] were used in the early 20th century for logging. Compared to conventional steam locomotives, geared locomotives were better-suited for the steep grades, sharp curves and uneven profiles of hastily laid track typical of logging operations. Thus, the MRRR sought to preserve and operate historic geared locomotives and related logging technology in order to present visitors with a sense of a bygone logging era critical to the development of the [[Pacific Northwest]].
Prior to 2016, steam operations were run based on availability of volunteer operators, who comprised the great majority of railroad personnel. However, after being purchased by American Heritage Railways in 2016, the railroad's operations were run by professional staff. The MRRR's regular schedule ran weekends from Memorial Day to late October, with special event Polar Express trains November through December. In May 2020, American Heritage Railways announced that the railroad would cease operations "for the foreseeable future" due to financial losses caused by the [[COVID-19 pandemic|COVID-19]] pandemic. The last [[Polar Express]] train ran from November to December 2019.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Mount Rainier Railroad to Cease Operations for Foreseeable Future|url=http://www.yelmonline.com/community/article_fb51549e-99e9-11ea-a70e-7f6d7a576658.html|date=May 19, 2020|newspaper=Nisqually Valley News|language=en|access-date=2020-05-20}}</ref> On September 15, 2022, it was announced that the railroad would resume operations by 2025, including the restoration of track to [[Eatonville, Washington|Eatonville]] that will add {{convert|9|mi|abbr=off|sp=us}} to the railroad.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Mt.

==History==
[[File:June 23 Mineral 153xRP - Flickr - drewj1946.jpg|thumb|[[Rayonier]] Willamette No. 2, leaving Eatonville, June 23, 2011.]]
The MRRR operated over track originating in Tacoma, on a route founded there over a century ago. In 1887, the Hart brothers constructed a short, {{Track gauge|3ft|lk=on}} [[Narrow-gauge railway|narrow gauge]] railroad originating at 46th Street in [[Tacoma, Washington]].<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.mortondepot.com/TEHistory.htm |title=Allen Miller " A Brief History of the Tacoma Eastern Railroad Co" |access-date=2009-03-14 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080725095645/http://www.mortondepot.com/TEHistory.htm |archive-date=July 25, 2008 |df=mdy-all}}</ref> In 1890, the railroad was reorganized by another interest as the [[Tacoma Eastern Railroad]], at which time the tracks were [[Track gauge conversion|converted]] to {{Track gauge|56.5in|allk=on}} and extended a distance of {{convert|6|mi|abbr=off|sp=us}}. The railroad was acquired in 1900 by yet another group of investors who had financial interests east of Elbe, the Nisqually Coal Fields, thus providing the impetus to extend the Tacoma Eastern from Tacoma to the area where the MRRR runs today.<ref name="''id.''">''Id.''</ref> The route was also extended to access stands of virgin timber south of Mount Rainier, eventually reaching [[Morton, Washington|Morton]].
Despite formal organization under the name Tacoma Eastern, the railroad was controlled by investors far from the [[Pacific Northwest]]. The [[Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Paul and Pacific Railroad]], also known as the "Milwaukee Road", reputedly had control of the Tacoma Eastern as early as 1901.<ref name="''id.''"/> In the 1890s, the Milwaukee Road's directors desired a connection from the [[Midwestern United States|Midwest]] to the [[Pacific coast]].<ref>[[Tacoma Eastern Railroad]]</ref> The Tacoma Eastern was an appealing investment for the Milwaukee Road. The Tacoma Eastern remained a subsidiary of the Milwaukee Road, owned through stock interest only, until 1918 when the [[United States Railroad Administration]] coordinated the Milwaukee Road's absorption of all its subsidiaries into one unified system.
The Tacoma Eastern, though, continued to exist as an independent entity within the Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Paul and Pacific Railroad system, where it was known as the National Park branch. This segment of the system was one of the Milwaukee Road's most profitable lines.<ref name="''id.''"/> As such, it was preserved amidst the Milwaukee Road's bankruptcy in 1980. The Tacoma Eastern was a viable carrier of lumber from stands of timber owned by the [[Weyerhaeuser]] Corporation, whose tracts of land still surround the MRSR today and provide commercial traffic on the line.
In the wake of the Milwaukee Road's 1980 bankruptcy, Tacoma lumberman Tom Murray, Jr., sought to open a portion of the line to tourists.<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www.mrsr.com/history.html |title=Mt. Rainier Scenic Railroad, Elbe, Washington USA |access-date=March 15, 2009 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090407084343/http://www.mrsr.com/history.html |archive-date=April 7, 2009 |url-status=dead |df=mdy-all }}</ref> MRSR was then created by Tom Murray to operate historic equipment stored in Tacoma.<ref name="''id.''"/> The Weyerhaeuser Corporation allowed the MRSR to operate its equipment on a seven-mile segment of the line from Elbe to Mineral. Weyerhaeuser maintained control of the track until 1998 when the corporation transferred control of all of its rail interests to the City of Tacoma, into what is now known as [[Tacoma Rail]]. This transfer of ownership did not affect the MRSR and its tourist operations, nor the availability of the route to commercial shipment. In mid 2016, due to decline and poor management, MRSR was sold to American Heritage Railways, which also owns the world renowned [[Durango and Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad|Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad]], rebranding the MRSR as the Mount Rainier Railroad and Logging Museum.
American Heritage Railways operated the Mount Rainier Railroad & Logging Museum from 2016 to 2020, when it was closed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. American Heritage Railways then sought a new owner for the operation before the newly revived Western Forest Industries Museum acquired the railroad in 2022. In 2023, the railroad began offering a rail cycle experience from New Reliance between Elbe and Eatonville. On August 1, 2023, following a deal to run excursions on the [[Chehalis–Centralia Railroad]] falling through due to the latters' financial difficulties, it was announced that the Mount Rainier Scenic Railroad would resume service.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2023-08-02 |title=Mt. Rainier Scenic steam excursions in Chehalis off; railroad plans fall trips at its own site |url=https://www.trains.com/trn/news-reviews/news-wire/mt-rainier-scenic-steam-excursions-in-chehalis-off-railroad-plans-fall-trips-at-its-own-site/ |access-date=2023-08-03 |website=Trains |language=en-US}}</ref>
The Mt. Rainier Scenic Railroad resumed train operations with a limited excursion schedule in September and October, 2023. After a hiatus since 2019, the historic steam engine “Polson 70” proudly pulled two vintage passenger cars, an open-air car, and a specially outfitted baggage car, serving as a concession and gift shop. The excursions included express trips from Elbe to Mineral. These long-awaited excursions mark the first under the new ownership of Western Forest Industries Museum (WFIM), a local nonprofit organization that assumed control of the railroad in August 2022, after its closure by its former for-profit operator, American Heritage Railways. With a storied history that dates back to 1980, Mt. Rainier Scenic Railroad has played a vital role in the economic prosperity of southern Pierce County, as well as in preserving the region’s rich local history. Having served over 1.6 million passengers, the railroad is now poised to embark on a new journey under WFIM’s vision.<ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.wfim.org/blog/train-excursions-return-to-mt-rainier-scenic-railroad | title=Train Excursions Return to Mt.

| [[File:Satsop Railroad No. 1 "C.F. White" - September 2017.jpg|thumb]]
| This locomotive is historically significant as it was one of only four standard gauge Porter 0-4-2T's built for the logging industry in Washington State, and was the first conventional (rod type) steam locomotive in [[Mason County, Washington|Mason County]]. Originally named "Currie," then later the "C.F. White," the #1 hauled logs and performed other switching duties for several railroad entities, all of which were components of the Simpson Logging Company, which exists today as the [[Simpson Investment Company|Simpson Timber Company]]. Satsop RR #1 became the Washington Southern Railroad #1 in 1891, then the [[Peninsular Railway (California)|Peninsular Railway]] #1 in 1895, followed by the Shelton Logging Co. #1 in 1899. Three years later, the #1 was once again a Peninsular Railway Co. engine, but renumbered to #6. Finally in 1935, the #6 became Simpson Logging Co. #1. After 60+ years of service, the Porter was placed on display at Simpson's Camp Grisdale as Satsop #1, the "C.F. White." The story didn't end there, as Simpson engineer and prolific live-steam locomotive manufacturer Mr. Dave Skagen, together with Mr. Bill Parsons, acquired the #1 in 1985. The #1 was moved to Mr. Parsons' shop where the boiler was re-tubed. The #1 was then relocated to Mr. Skagen's shop where the rest of the locomotive was rehabilitated to serviceable condition. Mr. Skagen constructed about 1,500 feet of standard gauge track on his property and occasionally operated the Porter at his home or on Simpson trackage. Mr. Skagen also constructed a small, 4-wheel "bobber" style caboose to pull behind the #1. Finally, in 1995, the Satsop RR. #1, caboose and a 4-wheel, center-dump ballast car were sold to the [[The Outlet Collection Seattle|Super Mall of the Great Northwest]], located in [[Auburn, Washington|Auburn, WA]], and moved there for display outside the south entrance to the mall. In 2013, the #1 was moved by truck to the Mt. Rainier Scenic Railroad's Mineral, WA restoration/repair facility, and cosmetically restored to its Satsop RR appearance.; '''stored inoperable after a cosmetic restoration.'''
