For over thirty years the Sumpter Valley Railroad Restoration Inc. has been dedicated to rebuilding this remnant of the past for the enjoyment of future generations. Since the first excursion train pulled out of McEwen station in 1976, an almost all volunteer staff has rebuilt over five miles of rail line, fully restored two original steam locomotives, refurbished numerous pieces of rolling stock, and constructed all the facilities it takes to run a railroad.

While traveling through the forests and gold dredge tailings of the Sumpter Valley visitors are given a glimpse back in time without having to leave the comfort of the present.

Operating between McEwen and the historic mining town of Sumpter, the steam-powered excursion trains of the Sumpter Valley Railroad offer an enjoyable way for the whole family to spend a day.
