Visual Materials
Photo shows the complex system of railroads and chuting employed to pour concrete the dams at Huntington Lake. Steam locomotives ran trains of three-yard dump cars from the mixing plant to each dam site. At the dam site the standard gauge trains dumped their concrete into one-yard dump cars that were pulled onto the dam on a narrow gauge track with a gasoline powered locomotive.
