Michael Ballard Posted July 14, 2020 Report Share Posted July 14, 2020 The test for cars, such as those, at the time was to take it over Newhall Pass. Prior to 1910, you would have gone through Beale's Cut with 18% grades on either side. Fun times! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
