Gas-air shovels loaded the trucks, which hauled the muck out of the canyons to waiting train cars. Then the empty trucks raced backward down the winding canyon grades to the tunnels. The drivers stood to steer their trucks, looking back over their shoulders with one foot on the gas. That way the trucks backed up against the tunnels ready for another load rather than needing to be turned around. Steam locomotives hauled the muck from the lower level on a track along the right-of-way above the River Camp, seen in the background. Side-dumping cars increased efficiency. Then, once the tunnels were mucked out, the rock had to be cleaned so the concrete would set. |
