Yoncalla Hauler Editors Pick! Contributor's Pick!       
Described over the radio as the "Yoncalla Hauler" and operating with UP power in the form of two back-to-back SD70Ms on Central Oregon & Pacific track. Up until 2007 the Siskiyou line still had several semaphore signals in use between Goshen and Yoncalla, but today this is all that remains of the blades that once covered the line. These signals appear to be a pair that was welded down into searchlights by SP which replaced them in a seemingly very random order, and now they too have fallen out of service.

Tom Beckett General Signals are out of service. Don't know the history there, but judging by the signal types, I'd say the signal system there has been deactivated. 10/31/2011 12:08:26 PM
