Iconic caboose moves through streets of historic Colfax
I had the chance to witness something I've never seen before, nor ever really thought I'd see. A more than 100-year-old train caboose rolled through the streets of Colfax, instead of on rails, as part of a relocation process to the 1905 depot across the street Thursday morning. Since 1969, the SP #863 wooden caboose has been a visual symbol of Colfax's railroad history at its perch on the corner of Grass Valley and Main Street. As part of a plan to move it to a more accessible spot at the depot, a team from Scott's Heavy Towing lifted the caboose onto wheels to make the delicate move.

And certain “reckless” behaviors, such as performing wheelies, will face an up-to $500 fine. The Folsom City Council approved an ordinance Tuesday that establishes new rules for “e-conveyances,” a broad category that included e-bikes, e-scooters, motorized bicycles, electric motorcycles — also called e-motos — and other electrically powered devices. This was the second reading of the ordinance, which has not changed since it was officially proposed in October . Thirty days following the council’s approval, riders will not be able to carry passengers on devices without a proper seat, swerve around traffic or perform “stunt and trick riding” such as wheelies or “acrobatic” tricks. The devices will also be banned from playgrounds and sports courts and fields, but would still be allowed on paved paths in parks under a reduced speed limit of 10 mph. Folsom has more than 50 miles of Class I paved trails — multiuse, off-street paths — some of which are within parks. Bike paths not in parks will have a speed limit of 15 mph.
