Nostalgia & History > Old time SP in NevadaDate: 12/16/12 06:20 Old time SP in Nevada Author: Copy19 Here are a couple of shots back in the days...
Photo 1 is Reno, looking north toward Peavine Mountain. I believe the tracks curving off to the left are the Virginia & Truckee connection. Photo 2 is Palisade, Nevada. The train could be crossing the same bridge that was knocked down by a westbound UP grain train in 2008. John Bromley Omaha Date: 12/17/12 11:06 Re: Old time SP in Nevada Author: hogantunnel John,
That appears to be the trestle at Palisade, since replaced by a singularly mundane concrete structure. The palisades in the background are a clue as well as the road area in front of the trestle where, in other photos, there was a vehicle bridge. The Humboldt river appears placid. |
