Nostalgia & History > SP 9814 crossing the Sacramento RiverDate: 11/23/12 06:49 SP 9814 crossing the Sacramento River Author: photobob SP 9814 east crossing the Sacramento River between Gibson and Sims in the mid-1990's. This 112 year old bridge is still faithfully serving the UP. I wonder how many trains in over a century of service have passed over it?

The Fillmore and Western has a bridge that appears identical, dated 1902. Great shot!
