The California Zephyr was diverted on this route only once. Recollection of that event, was Donnor's Pass, owned by the Southern Pacific at the time (now owned by UP), as the CZ main competitor at the time was the UP City of San Francisco.
The CZ was diverted IMHO due to an derailment caused by washed out bridges and/or track bed foundation from the result of warmer than usual weather creating quicker snow pack melt, allowing the track base to weaken on the Feather River Canyon subdivision of the Western Pacific RR.
