Larry Tuttle catches the Roseburg-Glendale Hauler
as it passes the Dole Road wigwag at Round Prairie (Douglas County), Oregon.
Rick Perry, signal maintainer for CORP, recently replaced the banner on
this wigwag with a new reproduction banner. Larry explains that that CORP
has reversed the Hauler schedules south of Roseburg on account of fire
season. They don't want to pay big bucks to have fires put out on
the Hill and are running south out of Medford at night. This makes
for daylight runs north and through Cow Creek Canyon.
