Will COMPLETE
CUTOFF next YEAR

| Work is progressing rapidly on the
cutoff from Rocklin to Colfax, Califor-
mia, which has been undertaken by the
Southern Pacific company to lessen the
grade for the 3lmile haul. The big
outlay has gone for the purpose Of
double trackage and the elimination Of
a heavy grade.
The cutoff will be completed inside
of year, although a great deal Of
heavy work yet remains The route
will be used exclusively for eastbound
traffic, as westbound trains will be
sent over the old line.
The grading has been completed and
the largest tunnels bored. There are
IL Of them in all, which vary in
length from 300 to 1920 feet. One Of
the most interesting pieces Of work
is at Newcastle, where a double track
| 900 feet in length has been built.
The present grade is 90 per cent, but
the new route will reduce It to Is per
cent.
| There are two bridges of consider
able length on the line, both steel via
ducts. One of them, at Auburn, il 600
feet long and rs feet high. The other
Is at Antelope creek, near Rocklin.
This structure is 450 feet long and 45
feet high
The tunnel work has been found e.
pecially expensive, as it has been
necessary to blast and cut through the
solid granite. The work has been car
ried on under the direction Of William
Hood, chief engineer for the Southern
Pacific. A. J. Barclay is assistant en-
gineer.
