• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

I dont know how unique this really is,but i dont think there were very many of these in the USA,these links take you to a short read about the Pino Grande to Camino California cable way system used by the Michigan - California lumber company,one side of the canyon was standard gauge rail and the other was narrow gauge.the canyon was over 2000 feet wide...check it out...pretty cool...scroll down on both pages for some cool photos..
