Founcd this interesting hand drawn diagram dated 1925 in the ARHS track and diagram collection,. The 1930 LA shows Walters and Earps sidings in existence. A good excuse to do some more research on this location. The curve and gradient diagram shows Cascade 5 miles up a 6 mile 1 in 30 grade between Brooklana and Briggsvale. Must have been fun to shunt.
