Evvvvvrybody knows that WP was relocated for the dam
Do young folks know that the rock came from the flats below Oroville,
from beds that were made by gold dredges?
It was hauled by Oro Dam Constructors RR which bought GEs brand new-
Loco Mavens will specify the model and number of units and where they went after.
IIRC there was a fatal head-on collision near the rock loader
