CANTARA LOOP, EIGHTEENTH CROSSING,
SACRAMENTO RIVER, CALIFORNIA
The train spends five hours crossing and recrossing
the Sacramento River. This loop was devised to get
out of the canyon and up on the plateau where
stands Mount Shasta, with its snowy summit, as
seen from the car windows. Nothing could be a
more glorious tribute to the marvelous skill of the
modern railroad engineer than the obstacles met with
and overcome in building a railroad through this
rugged country,
