Here is how the railroads work.They want to build a double track bridge over a wash(single track is already there)They burn down the old one,and while they are rebuilding the first one,they put up the second one.NO-ONE and a mean NO-ONE can stop them.

Bill,

There is no bridge at this spot to burn down and if they could build one that crosses the river it would eliminate one of the most dangerous spots on the railroad in this area. I doubt if even the railroad can burn down a mountain. The river kind of winds back on itself and the railroad is on a cut that follows the river and they have to make this hard switchback in this spot and when they have 100 or more cars is is very hard to not have one of them pull off the rails. The Environmentalists have screamed for years about this but THEY HAVE stopped the railroad from building a bridge across the river that would eliminate this dangerous spot.
