Tehama is now South Gerber
Author: MtVernon_Tower

Today they yanked out the old searchlight signals around the Tehama, Ca. wye. On the far left is a signal for northbound movements from the former West Valley Line. The signal next to the train protects the south switch of "Gerber".

I suppose Los Molinos will become North Gerber.

I notice that the new light for the old West Valley line is lit. Does that mean that that line is now useable from the south to the connection with the line to the north? If so, is it used? Finally, why does the signal have only two aspects rather than the usual three?

Stop, restricted approach, permanent speed restriction through the switch I would
imagine. I'm pretty sure they fixed the bridge but I don't think the line has been
used since except maybe to spot some storage.

North Gerber is what used to be [SP] Gerber, unless the Borg has changed it again.

Are the searchlights still in from SP215 Gerber going northward at this point?

North Gerber is still at the north end of the siding. South Gerber has been the south end of the siding for a long time. Not sure when it was renamed from Tehama. Los Molinos is of course south (geo east) of that.

I think it's been about 10 years.
