| Post subject: | Today in Sierra RR history |
From the Historic Sierra Railway list: Today in Sierra History Date: Monday, April 18, 2005 Time: All Day 1906: San Francisco is struck by a massive earthquake; the Sierra's founders sustain heavy losses. (This also marks the 'ceremonial' last day of construction on the Yosemite Short Line...) 1955: Loco #38 closes out the SRR's steam freight era, pulling train #4 from Oakdale to Jamestown. Deisels #40 & #42 make the return trip I hope someday the 38 can come home to Jamestown and be reassembled. Did it move up to Oregon as planned or is it still in McCloud, California? |
