Landslide blocks Southern Pacific traffic in Nevada cut
A major landslide in a deep cut between Battle Mountain and Cartin Nevada blocked all Southern Pacific trains for about 24 hours. Thousands of tons of rock and dirt filled the track 25 feet high, washing out the line and delaying the Overland de Luxe and a special Woodmen of the World train en route to Donger. The Western Pacific washout west of Salt Lake City also remained unrepaired, with an estimated 24 hours needed to clear the track.
