It Never Rains In Southern California...Not True This Weekend!

That brings sumthin else to mind. My old homeland in the desert Barstow is a major Santa Fe RR site. A 90 yr old bridge that crosses the tracks is going to be replaced. Just on the other side of that bridge is the mighty Mojave River, dry 90% of the time. A really wet winter in the mountains up stream could make that construction real interesting :rofl:

I think this was winter '21. There's only about 10' difference in the elevation between the river there and the track bed. That bridge I think remains in service I think with the new one just upstream of it. 1692653631860.png
