Box Canyon Trestle and Dam
Title:  Box Canyon Trestle and Dam
Description:  The scenic highlight of the trip is Box Canyon trestle and dam. The bridge was built in 1911, the dam just below the bridge in 1955. The train stops on the bridge for a few minutes to let passengers take in the sights. Despite the scenic wonder, maintenance on this bridge is the main reason this run is ending after 2016.
