It's quite possible that the bridges and track were upgraded where needed as far as Fort Ord; otherwise the GS locomotives could have run at restricted speed and made caution crossings at any bridges if required. As Tom points out, this was during a war, and SP would've done whatever was necessary to get the job done.
