Rail line to Coos Bay

Officials hope to restore service to Coos Bay by the middle of the year.

Union Pacific Railroad transferred 23 miles track to the Oregon International Port of Coos Bay this week. The line runs from the North Spit to Coquille and includes rail yard facilities in North Bend and Coos Bay.

The 23 miles of track connects with the currently idle rail line linking the South Coast to Eugene. … The port is working with engineering consultants to plan track repairs and maintenance of bridges, trestles and culverts.
