I'll have to check the CA regs on track spacing. They might be 13 feet and SP Fresno was at 12, but in any case, they might have been grandfathered. As I recall it, the tracks were in really bad shape, so the SP went in and did some repairs. If they would have just fixed one part of the track (i.e. changed the rail) they would have been OK. The problem was that they did at least a couple of things--something like rail AND ties. When they did that, it constituted a rebuild, which triggered the new standards.
