Tunnel Motor Tuesday, SP . . .
Author: 3rdswitch

. . . in JUL '76, a set of SP helpers were "I THINK" eastbound on Beaumont Pass but for the life of me I cannot place the shot? Must be east slope but things are pretty green? Don't think it is Tehachapi because of jointed rail?

Looks like somewhere east of Apex, maybe Pershing or Banning?

Yeah, looks like the location is on the Sunset on the east side of Beaumont Hill. I would guess around Cabazon, next to Railroad Avenue where the tracks are closer to the roadway. We could see the mountains in the distance if it wasn't so dang smoggy. Nice catch of a once common sight, JB.
