On August 18, 1890, the Sumpter Valley Railroad was incorporated in Oregon by David Eccles and four others. One year earlier, those same Utah industrialists had founded the Oregon Lumber Company. The railroad's initial purpose was to haul logs to a new sawmill being built for the Oregon Lumber Company in South Baker City, but it's role soon expanded well beyond that.
