Friends and Supporters of OCSR,

As our local communities continue to deal with the expanding impact of the coronavirus (COVID-19), I want to share with you that it has been decided to suspend all public railroad operations of the Oregon Coast Scenic Railroad until at least April 13^th to protect the health and safety of our riders and staff.

We recognize that this situation is constantly changing, and our administration is monitoring the CDC, WHO, and other sources to be as up-to-date as possible on the topic of the coronavirus.

While we are not operating to the public, we will still be enacting our enhanced cleaning and disinfection protocols to ensure that when public operations begin again, our riders are as safe as possible.

We encourage everyone to follow the advice of the CDC to slow the spread of the coronavirus including:

• Wash your hands with soap and water for at least 20 seconds.
• Avoid close contact with people who are sick.
• Cover a cough or sneeze – preferably with a disposable tissue.
• Avoid touching your face – especially your eyes, nose, and mouth.
• Clean and disinfect frequently touched objects.
• Stay home if you have flu-like symptoms.

We want to thank everyone in our community for supporting us and encourage you all to come back in the summer when OCSR will be back! Stay safe everyone!

Thank you,

Rachael Aldridge

Executive Director

Oregon Coast Scenic Railroad
