Interesting Points along the Way

Morse Station and Enterance to the Merced Canyon       Here the first indications of the unique scenic attraction of your journey. For 50 miles your train weaves in and out through the vari-colored walls of the deep-cleft river gorge, crossing again and again the swift-coursing waters. Now and again a break in the rugged hills affords a magnificent panorama sweeping away to the distant haze in true western grandeur. Then the gorge narrows again and your train draws close to the water's edge. You are in eager anticipation of the scene to be unfolded around the next bend in the narrow canyon.
