Former Westside Lumber Co.'s line into the woods from Tuolumne is slowly eroding away with the recent heavy rains here in California. The first image is from the US Forest Service that maintains the railway turned hiking/biking trail. The other two images are mine from a few years ago near where the erosion damage has occurred.
