Detailed

 * The lead is too short. As per WP:MOSLEAD, it should be at least two paragraphs.
 * Could you provide a source on who called that SD&AE the 'impossible railway?
 * 'during the 2003 cedar fire...operations near the track' This sentence is vague. Could you improve it?
 * It is mentioned that the usage of the line ended again in 1983. When did it resume operations?
 * surrounding environment-> which one is endangered, the sheep or the trestle (maybe both?)
 * I have expanded the lead, provided a more specific reason for why the San Diego and Arizona Railway was called impossible, and attempted to improve the history section. Please see this diff. Are there additional changes requested?--RightCowLeftCoast (talk) 21:18, 18 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Just as a follow-up in the impossible railway- now there is a duplicate mention in the history section. 1.02 editor (C651 set 217/218) 07:06, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
 * I have removed that duplicate mention, see the diff here.--RightCowLeftCoast (talk) 08:32, 19 March 2018 (UTC)


 * one more issue- it is stated in 'background' that initially another bridge was the most significant. Did this trestle replace it?
 * no it did not. The Campo Creek Viaduct is close to Campo, California, as seen here, and mentioned by the Washington Post, and in this book, is on the Campo Indian Reservation. As stated in the article the subject of the article replaced a collapsed tunnel in Carrizo Gorge.--RightCowLeftCoast (talk) 07:01, 20 March 2018 (UTC)
 * I was asking if it replaced the bridge as most significant. If it didn't please remove the mention. If it did, please mention that the trestle replaced it. Thanks. 1.02 editor (C651 set 217/218) 07:24, 20 March 2018 (UTC)
 * It did; the article states "Initially, the most significant bridge on the route was the Campo Creek Viaduct,". Do you want something more specific than that?--RightCowLeftCoast (talk) 19:17, 20 March 2018 (UTC)
 * it'll be good if you could mention the trestle took over it as the most significant. 1.02 editor (C651 set 217/218) 22:56, 20 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Should this change be sufficient?--RightCowLeftCoast (talk) 00:12, 21 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Yes it should, Passing.1.02 editor (C651 set 217/218) 01:53, 21 March 2018 (UTC)
