This nice color slide shows the old line, near the old post tunnel. This image was shot just after the line through the old post tunnel was abandoned and the new one was opened to service. In taking this picture, the photographer captured a scene that would soon be completely lost to history. This portion of the former mainline can now only vaguely be seen from trans passing on the relocated line at a higher elevation. The cut is mostly full of undergrowth and the rails have been removed.
