Nostalgia & History > SP X7011 West in Soledad Canyon early 1960's

Four Alco DL702's lead by 7011 head up a westbound with an SD9 thrown in to keep it running in Soledad Canyon. Doe's anyone know the exact location of this shot I took back in the early 1960's?

It's at the bottom end of Ravenna, looking west (railroad east) towards China Flat. Taken from the Soledad Canyon Road overpass.

Hollywood likes that bridge, too.

Kudos to Photobob... the B&W makes the image all that more dramic & timeless... We can all learn something from his imagery..

Yes I remember seeing actor Christopher George walking across that bridge in the beginning segments of "The Immortal". About 1970 or so.
