Yosemite National Park is a national park largely in Mariposa County, and Tuolumne County, California, United States. The park covers an area of 1,189 mi² (3,081 km²) and reaches across the western slopes of the Sierra Nevada mountain chain. Yosemite is visited by over 3.5 million visitors each year, with most only seeing the seven square miles of Yosemite Valley.

The Yosemite Mountain Sugar Pine Railroad is located near Fish Camp, California, USA, in the Sierra National Forest. Built in the 1960s by Rudy Stauffer, the YMSPRR largely follows right-of-way established by the Madera Sugar Pine Lumber Company. Service began with the purchase of three-truck Shay locomotive #10 from the West Side Lumber Company railway of Tuolumne. Built in 1928, #10 was reportedly the largest and among the last narrow-gauge Shay locomotives ever constructed.
