| Shady Creek Bridge, 1965 |
This derailment occurred at Shady Creek
bridge in March 1965, three months following the 1964 flood. Several boxcars carrying paper
went over the side and two, a Northern Pacific and a Union Pacific boxcar, still remain but are
carried deeper into the canyon each time mudslides occur here. The train was travelling westbound.
