Nostalgia & History > More Ocean Shore TrestleDate: 05/30/16 21:39 More Ocean Shore Trestle Author: fmaffei At Palmer Gulch S/O Tunitas Glen
20 +/- miles S/O Half Moon Bay CA.   Date: 05/30/16 22:35 Re: More Ocean Shore Trestle Author: TonyJ That was on huge trestle. You still find where it once stood. When was the photo taken? In the fifties? In today's world you wouldn't leave an abandoned trestle with easy access to the public.

Posted from iPhone Date: 05/31/16 08:39 Re: More Ocean Shore Trestle Author: sphogger CPRR - there was some of that old growth Redwood available when they removed the timber tunnel linings on the southern end of the Siskiyou line. There was an article in the Medford or Ashland newspaper several years ago about a guy who was making violin's out of that wood. I don't know if it is still available. Sphogger.
