I'm fairly certain Maine loading gauge was 5' 6" for passenger car bodies, but stuff like roofs, footsteps and so on could overhang that.

Someone somewhere said that the painpoin on loading gauge stability compared to rail gauge is around 250%.

Oh, I didn't notice the hill in the back. I was once at a railway station with a similar blocky prison-like look, which was in either Saxony-Anhalt or Brandenburg.

Sacramento Northern ran largely on third rail north of Sacramento and on overhead wire between Sacramento and Oakland. This has to do with the fact that the SN was a merger between two distinct companies who built separate routes, with a common connection in Sacramento.

I'm sure in no time it will be clogged with illegals, chinks, homeless, and aggressive panhandlers in no time.

Doubt it considering it won't have BART service.

Round 2. We are always fucking these things up! This time we have the UPY 598 involved in the same type of sideswiping accident on a switch. A little note on the UP 9746, the accident occurred back in January and the unit sat on a siding until coming to us for repairs. We just released it yesterday with a fresh coat of paint. My supervisor told is that BNSF had to pay $1,000 per day since the wreck plus the cost of repairs. I'd guess around half a million just for that part of it.

Did they ever have plans to convert the whole network over to either overhead or third rail?

The Squamish Railway Museum is so comfy. Big yard that you can just wander through. Pretty decent length miniature railroad. Plus the roundhouse with the Royal Hudson. If you're a railfan visiting Vancouver it's worth the trip up to see.

No, but I believe they equipped most of their interurban and freight motors with the ability to operate over both types.

Yeah. A bunch of steeplecabs with a pantograph, a trolleypole, and sometimes third rail shoes. Not sure if that combo was ever replicated anywhere else.
