Additional Description: Caption: (right center) Plan for a box culvert similar to culverts near Romola. The railbed was made flat by laying a bed of crushed stone on the wooden slats. In the mountains and along the coast, local timber was used for construction. In dry, desert areas, wood had to be transported in along with the other railroad supplies.
