UP Riverside Branch Update
Author: spider1319

Drove through Grand Terrace on Friday and saw that UP has stored cars just south of the Santa Ana River Bridge to I215 Bridge.Bill Webb

Hiding among the ghosts of narrow gauge "motors" and LA&SL transcon trains. Is the Highgrove diamond still in place and intact?

The crossing frog at the San Jac -Riverside Industrial Lead crossing was pulled when the new connector was completed.

Hard to believe the UP "re-tied" this branch about 8 years ago and replaced the 1902 rail with used "ribbon rail". Spent alot of money on the Santa Ana River bridge just south of Colton. Used to have more "gauge rods" than good ties on this branch!
