Kim, the man in charge of maintenance on the causeway told me an interesting story. Seems during WW11 a locomotive and several boxcars went off over the trestle and went for a swim. The engine was raised, I don't know if it ran again, or went to the scrapyard. The train was a supply train and carrying clothing for the GIs. He said that after a particularly hard storm that sometimes an old boot or scrap of cloth can be found on the rocks of the causeway. 73, lh On 9/10/2012 4:38 PM, Kim wrote:
