Here's a comparison of then and now of the wreck site where #5 & #8 wrecked on Montgomery Pass in 1923. This occured at the cut about 1 mile downgrade from the summit. Again George Sapp is recreating one of the employee's positions. Photo take on June 19,2006. When we searched the cut carefully we found many small locomotive parts that had been left behind.
