Noyo River Tunnel Bridge
Posted March 21, 2022, by John Bernhisel (Johnmbernhisel [at] gmail [dot] com)

The Noyo River Bridge is on the California Western Railroad or Skunk Train Line. There is a tunnel to the immediate north that crossed under the mountain to the Pudding Creek side. This is one of a series of six railroad trestles along the Noyo River.
