Alameda and San Joaquin Railroad
The Alameda and San Joaquin Railroad was incorporated on May 1, 1895, to serve the coal mines of the San Francisco & San Joaquin Coal Company at Corral Hollow. The 36.6-mile (58.9 km) line ran from Tesla (located in the Corral Hollow canyon southeast of Corral Hollow Pass) to Carbona just south of Tracy and then up to Lathrop and Stockton. The line was constructed in 1895. On July 25, 1903, the line was sold to the Western Pacific Railway (WP).

gollark: Images are generated at intervals and then may be used to respond to lots of HTTP requests.
gollark: I guess I could make the thing which needs the images poll a channel from the other thread and put them in a table then, but that seems terrible.
gollark: I have another problem. I need to offload the generation of the image things to another thread, since it's quite slow. It seems that just passing a tableref to `createThread` and having it update that doesn't work, since the table is presumably copied at some point. I looked at channels, but they don't look like they work well with async. What's the best way to do this?
