| Looking back at Stenner Creek Bridge from way up above the west end of Chorro sdg. About two decades later, Mike Magazin and Bob Wershila and I would make a trip down this way, to catch freight action on Cuesta, during the prelude to one of the times that SP "shut down" thru freight traffic on the Coast Line. To be honest, I think Gerry and I fell asleep after topping out at Cuesta Summit on this trip, and snoozed our way up the Salinas Valley. Even at mid-teen age, having been up for about 34 hours caught up with us eventually. Now, four decades-plus OLDER, after 34 hours awake, I'd be dead. So, I wouldn't really be awake. Hmm- they say the first thing to go is your memory.... |
