What was it like to off-roading at night in Bradshaw trail | Eagle Mountain Railroad Trestle

Bradshaw Trail is a historic overland stage route in the western Colorado Desert of Southern California. It is a remnant of the much longer Bradshaw Road, also known as the Road to La Paz, or Gold Road, established in 1862 by William D. Bradshaw. The Eagle Mountain Railroad, owned by Kaiser Steel Corporation, is a 51-mile branch line that serves the iron mines in and around Eagle Mountain, near California’s Salton Sea. It branches from the Union Pacific’s transcontinental route (ex-Southern Pacific) near Niland, CA, at a location named “Ferrum”, at which a small 5-track staging yard and turning wye are also located.
