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.
