I have been planning a layout based on the Fitchburg between roughly Willows to E. Portal. Using Google Earth, I was looking at the line. I noticed the line was changed near the dam. When was this project done?
While we're in this area, why did they put in Wright's interlocking where it is? It is in the middle of nowhere. Any problems would require the maintainer to drive a long way on the R.O.W., or hi rail in? How do they fuel the switch heater? Does the propane truck drive in, or is there a long pipeline?
