Joe,
I still have to post photo essays on the installation of the rail and the driving of the golden spike. I have be occupied elsewhere, but I will try and post them before the actual ribbon cutting for the La Selva Bridge. I have enjoyed following the bridge work immensely and I am very pleased I have been able to share it with everyone.
I am looking forward to seeing carloads of lumber crossing the La Selva Bridge again on their way to customers in Santa Cruz County.
