During the winter months with it's nice low light on a sunny day the Tehama/Gerber area is a nice place with many photo angles to spent a day taking photos of trains.

Quite a bit of history to the old bridge, there's a few interesting photos on the web showing river boats, the original bridge, etc. Tangible, hands on connections to early California are hard to find these days.
Not sure why but I just don't feel comfortable in that area, there's always people popping up out the brush or raising big dust clouds, always soimething odd going on. Driving past it for over 40 years I may have a couple of static photos of the bridge and that's all. t4p.

Very nice picture, love the consist, and all together now, We miss the SP! Out Date: 09/22/20 16:59 Re: That bridge across the river at Tehama Author: TCnR Looking for something else and ran across this post about the bridge:
