Tony,

I don't know the history of when the condos were built, but you can see their relation to the rail line at the Google link below.

[g.co]

During the holiday season I have noticed the Roaring Camp Holiday Lights Train parked next to Slakey Brothers during the day, but wondered how they secured the train at night since the loading dock a Slakey Brothers was where the homeless slept at night. I learned they move the entire train into the tunnel at night and lock the gates at both ends.
