Hwy 136 crossing

Between Tramway and Dolomite was the last remaining section of original narrow gauge rails outside of the Laws yard, until 2020 that is when a highway repaving project finally removed them.

In 2020, Caltrans removed the two sections of rail during highway project, they were kind enough to give them to the CCR and they are now in Independence where they will be used in a future display.
