Western Railroad Discussion > CN grain train through Dunsmuir this morningDate: 07/05/15 13:13 CN grain train through Dunsmuir this morning Author: photobob Got up at the crack of clouds this morning to chase the CN grain train. The crack of clouds was a really cool lighting storm that blew through here this morning.

Photo#4 Along the Sacramento River at Gibson. Photo#5 Crossing Salt Creek Trestle. This location would be under about thirty feet of water with a normal year. Photo#6 The DPU's passing over the old Highway 99 bridge high and dry.

http://www.dot.ca.gov/dist2/cctv/shastaco.html Drove over the bridge last night, I've seen the Lake a lot worse but can't speak to time of year or volume; This morning the Weather guys are getting all excited about Ocean warming already. ------------------------------------------------------- > Nice but the last two don't give me any warm > fuzzies about the state of our water supply.
