COVER
Called a "saber plow," the machine on this month's cover places cable underground at a depth of approximately three feet, threading it through a blade which vibrates in, but doesn't disturb the ballast. The plow moves along at about 1,500 feet per hour. Shown at Hiland, near the summit of Cajon Pass, it is laying cable to power switches and signals for sidings on the Colton Cutoff, part of the $7.68 million West Colton to Mojave CTC project now underway. The machine operator is Lead Signalman Tim Kenyon. At the rear of the plow are Signalman Herman Fullgrabe, left, and Signal Foreman Wally
