Sinossi
Excerpt from Report of the Chief Engineer Upon Recent Surveys, Progress of Construction, and an Approximate Estimate of Receipts of the Central Pacific Railroad of California, October 8th, 1864
The Pass selected is believed to be the lowest of any across the Sierras, which are attainable by a practicable railroad line. In fact, I think that upon no other route (with perhaps one exception,) has a continuous line of levels been carried from tide water to the Summit, and I am not aware of the result of that survey having been placed before the public.
