Reply to "TUNNEL TUESDAY!"

  Thanks TEDW for bring back some spectacular memories to me.   In December 1945 I rode the San Diego & Arizona Eastern through those tunnels and over the spectacular trestles.  I was 14, and the SD&AE passenger train left San Diego in the late evening.  I remember crossing the border into Mexico...and then later crossing back. But since it was winter it got dark early.  I went to sleep...but when we got to the Carizzo  Gorge my Dad woke me up and we crossed the trestle in bright moonlight.  Thanks TEDW for bringing back those spectacular memories.  (I do recall the many tunnels, but had no way of knowing their names)  Ten Wheelers and arch window coaches...what memories.
