Ownership and History
The Descanso, Alpine and Pacific Railway was owned by Roy Athey. After building it in his backyard with his friends he continued to operate it free of charge to anyone who wanted to ride it. As of January 2018, he donated key parts of the railroad to the Pacific Southwest Railway Museum due to his inability to continue running the train.
