This could be really bad for UP, since that bridge has around 50 trains a day pass through it. I would not be surprised that UP completely rebuilds that trestle and the line will be out of service for at minimum two weeks.

Sees a lot of Amtrak use as well.

Just this minute TV is showing a 2-track tressle afire in Sacramento.
I'm not able to give any technical data, except that I did not see a train, and did see timber burning and destroying two tracks.
Sorry to bring bad news.
