Mentoring

Operator mentoring is available prior to each Coos Bay Rail Link run, with advanced notice. We have a small section of non-mainline track available for training and practice. Other Excursion Coordinators (EC) may offer mentoring, but you will need to contact the EC well in advance of a run for approval.
