Additional Details:
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
