Your Tuesday Tidbit

During this pandemic winter I will attempt to at least send along a brief Tuesday post.  This picture was the very first one I posted back in February 2015 when I was learning how to do such, and that learning curve continues to this day.

Times were very quiet for Amedee and eastern Lassen County, and Modoc too, due to a heavy January 1916 snowstorm that left those residents isolated. The snow blockade created a twenty-one day shut down of the NCO trains.  The lack of outside communications with no mail, newspapers etc made for a trying time.

I hope everyone will enjoy the next three months of these Tuesday Tidbit installments.

Tim
