Jim,
I knew about the trestles being burned in Condor Canyon. However, if you go from Caliente up to Meadow Valley you will find most of them still in place. Up in meadow valley itself, the road bead has been cut open in various locations to let trucks etc pass through the grade. On the North side of Condor Canyon, the road grade is pretty much in tact.

Also, up near Pioche, the grade loops around the base of the mountain and heads to a mine. The grade is also still visible to Jackrabbit.

Dan
