Another great historical one Bill. Was this dual gauge or is the extra rail in for protection?

It is still hard for me to believe that this continent-crossing railroad could have gone bust. What a shame.

Proof that you can take a superb photo without sunshine!

Killer shot, Bill! I realize this was a serious "hike-in" location.

This was the final shot of perhaps my best single day out on the Milwaukee Road. Tim Repp and I headed out and were able to chase an eastbound train out as far as Beverly where it met this train. This trestle has an interesting guide rail, just one, making it look like dual gauge. A friend of mine that worked for Milwaukee in Seattle said the revenues were pretty decent on lines west.

Thanks for digging this out and sharing.
