Although it operated as a common carrier, the Hetch Hetchy Railroad was built by the City of San Francisco to build the O'Shaughnessy Dam across Hetch Hetchy Valley as part of the city's water supply. The dam was completed in 1923 and the railroad scaled back operations, selling some of its equipment, including #6, which was sold to Pickering Lumber Corporation in Standard, California. The locomotive served Pickering's logging operations until 1958 when it was retired.
The railroad operated four Shays at different times. Number 6 was by far the largest, the only three truck Shay of the lot and weighing more than twice as much as the others.
Hetch Hetchy is the name of a valley, a reservoir and a water system in California in the United States. The glacial Hetch Hetchy Valley lies in the northwestern part of Yosemite National Park and is drained by the Tuolumne River. For thousands of years before the arrival of Europeans in the 1850s, the valley was inhabited by Native Americans who practiced subsistence hunting-gathering. During the late 19th century, the valley was renowned for its natural beauty – often compared to that of Yosemite Valley – but also targeted for the development of water supply for irrigation and municipal interests.
In 1923, the O'Shaughnessy Dam was completed on the Tuolumne River, flooding the entire valley under the Hetch Hetchy Reservoir. The dam and reservoir are the centerpiece of the Hetch Hetchy Project, which in 1934 began to deliver water 167 miles (269km) west to San Francisco and its client municipalities in the greater San Francisco Bay Area. These works have remained contested to the present day on both legal and environmental platforms. In the 21st century, there has been renewed interest in removing the dam and restoring the valley to its natural state.
Hetch Hetchy was an American post-punk band formed in Athens, Georgia. Lynda Stipe, sometimes credited as Lynda L. Limner, was the only consistent member of the group until they permanently disbanded.
History
The EPMake Djibouti was issued through Texas Hotel in 1988 and was produced by Lynda's brother Michael Stipe the lead singer of the band R.E.M. After the release of Make Djibouti most of the original players left the band, leaving Stipe as the only remaining group member. Bassist and vocalist Jay Totty, who had recently moved from Athens to Florida, saw Stipe performing with her band Cowface and was impressed. They formed a new incarnation of Hetch Hetchy and released Swollen in 1990, with Tim Sommer and Hahn Rowe producing. In contrast to the group's previous release, Swollen drew inspiration from gothic rock, dream pop and British folk music, garnering them comparisons to Cocteau Twins and Hugo Largo.
Insanely good project from Lynda Stipe, clearly the talented one of the Stipe clan. This one's off their '88 EP 'Make Djibouti'. Hear this and other rare dark weirdness every month on OBSCURED Radio: https://bit.ly/3tb2A92

Band-Hetch Hetchy, Song - Retsina, Album-Swollen-1990
Feat. on vocals, this is the sister of Michael Stipe, Lynda Stipe. Retsina: It's a wine that's allowed tree sap in it from ages old when Grecian storekeepers had gotten tired of soldiers who repeatedly would steal from them. To prevent from looting they vesseled their wines (before barrels were invented) ... using seals adapted with pine resin resulting for a bitter tasting and undesirable beverage but safe from the Roman army's plundering. A proper Roman could NOT BARE the rankness of Retsina... . This tradition holds in modern day times however with less pungency than in the ancient era. Not any idea really of the song lyrics but for a while now I've been meaning to dump it...
