Guard-rail curve

[NW Mailing List]

The photo on page 92 of N&W Electrics shows part of the curve where the Mill Creek branch (later the main line) departed the Bluestone branch and the caption refers to this as "Guard Rail" curve.  Does anybody know why it was called this and does anyone have, or know of any other photographs of this area prior to the burying of the original line up Mill Creek?  The attached post card shot may have been taken from the original bridge.  Can anyone comment?
Thanks,
Jim Cochran
