Norm Holmes Collection Drawer 4 Row 5
Misc. & copies, WP Transport, WPMW Equipment Misc.

Some of the notes on the slide mounts for some of this collection were very hard to read, some were illegible.
Here are some scans of the slide mounts if you want to try and decipher them:

A few notes about these slides:

  • The initials "LS" on some of the slides is for Louis L. Stern Jr. Berkeley
  • The initials "RRL" on some of the slides is for Robert (Bob) Larson

Some of these slides include photos in and around Tesla. Tesla is in the Diablo range between Livermore and Tracy. It's been a ghost town for many years.

There were several companies that over the years mined coal at Tesla.

In 1890, John Treadwell, a millionaire living in San Francisco became interested in the coalmines in the Corral Hollow area. Treadwell made his fortune in a gold mine in Alaska. After acquiring several properties and mines in the area, Treadwell formed a corporation in 1895 named the San Francisco and San Joaquin Coal Mining Company to operate these properties.

Soon afterwards, it was concluded that rail transportation was necessary to get the coal to market. The SP had trackage to the north of Corral Hollow, but SP was reluctant to build a spur to the mine. The newly-formed San Francisco & San Joaquin Valley Railroad (eventually acquired by the Santa Fe to become part of their line to Richmond) was uninterested in building a rail line to the mine.

The directors of the mining company decided to build their own railroad from the mine to the Stockton waterfront, where the coal would be transloaded to ships for movement to market. They formed the Alameda & San Joaquin Railroad, which became part of the Western Pacific in 1903. Treadwell and some of his associates became involved with George Gould building the WP.

This information is a small portion from a book titled "History of Tesla - A California Coal Mining Town" by Dan L. Mosier and Earle E. Williams. The book covers anything and everything you'd ever want to know (and then some) about Tesla, the mines and their operations, and the A&SJ Railroad.

might be in the area where the Carnegie brick plant was located. The brick plant was down near the valley floor, not back up in the hills at Tesla. The principals that owned the coal mine and the railroad were looking for other prospects to increase traffic on the A&SJ RR and found a deposit of clay in that area suitable for brickmaking. - note from Thom Anderson 6/28/24
