Western Railroad Discussion > Getting Around to the PointDate: 04/13/24 03:37 Getting Around to the Point Author: funnelfan Modoc Point is the point where the north end of Upper Klamath Lake parts ways with the Modoc Rim and was always a key point in transportation along the lake, a steam boat landing before the roads and railroads were cut into the rugged slope. Here a southbound UP freight works it's way shore of the lake between Modoc Point and Algoma heading toward Klamath Falls, OR. May 23rd, 2019.

JB Date: 04/13/24 08:23 Re: Getting Around to the Point Author: FiveChime Wow! Great photos. I was above the lake shooting years ago, in fact the location of my first video of an eastbound SP train.
Were you using a drone? Regards, Jim Evans Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 04/13/24 08:24 by FiveChime. Date: 04/13/24 09:26 Re: Getting Around to the Point Author: Ritzville Very NICE series of Modoc point and upper Klamath Lake. I miss seeing that area in SP days.

Looks like the train (and other manifest trains I've seen in that area) run short enough to actually fit the short-ish controlled sidings on this route. |
