Nostalgia & History > Wherisit in 1972Date: 09/24/16 15:45 Wherisit in 1972 Author: lamta_jay Taken in 1972
This branch had just recently been abandoned because of a freeway project (and a lack of business) on the short branch. Clue...this branch once crossed a Santa Fe Main line Whereisit ???? Any guesses ? Jay  Date: 09/24/16 20:11 Re: Wherisit in 1972 Author: BobP PE out near Redlands???
Date: 09/24/16 21:51 Re: Wherisit in 1972 Author: lamta_jay nope
The Redlands loop never crossed a main line Clue #2 this line was SP ex PE Jay Date: 09/24/16 22:10 Re: Wherisit in 1972 Author: SCAX3401 Is it the San Dimas Branch looking east from say Lone Hill Ave?

pulled before 1972. The line to Corona crossed the SF main and was pulled up around there? Jay, you're killing me cause I should know this! Out Date: 09/25/16 11:40 Re: Wherisit in 1972 Author: ButteStBrakeman Riverside branch out of old Colton yard?

The shot is the San Dimas Branch at Lone Hill crossing Lone Hill Road. At one time this line had a tower where it crossed the Santa Fe's Second District. When I took this shot the ties and rail were still on the right of way behind me to the junction with the Baldwin Park Branch (PE San Bernardino Line) Thanks for all you replies Jay |
