Note to "OPRRMS"... I remember having a Cab Ride on an SP switch engine years ago from that Drill Track down to Fruitvale Station.. Seems we left the Drill Track somewhere along San Leandro Street, ran thru a gate and entered a GLASS Plant if I remember right ...

Old-time rail historian "Bob Hannah" told me that at one time, the "California Railway" which operated from Fruitvale up 42nd Avenue to Leona Heights in the hills and was electric powered, had an operation which branched off from 42nd Avenue and ran on the Drill Track for a ways.
However, I have never seen any photos to prove this...
