Roaring Camp & Big Trees Narrow Gauge Railroad

The Roaring Camp & Big Trees Narrow Gauge Railroad is a 3 ft (914 mm) narrow-gauge tourist railroad in Santa Cruz County, California that starts from the Roaring Camp depot in Felton and runs up steep grades through redwood forests to the top of nearby Bear Mountain, a distance of 3.25 miles (5.23 kilometers). The railroad runs most trains using steam locomotives, several dating from the 1890s. They are some of the oldest narrow-gauge steam locomotives still providing regular passenger service in the United States. (Knott's Berry Farm operates two narrow-gauge engines built in 1881, and the Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad runs one built in 1883.) The American Society of Mechanical Engineers designated three of the railroad's locomotives as Historic Mechanical Engineering Landmark #134 in 1988.
