The main volcano page for Shasta very briefly mentions it in the summary: https://www.usgs.gov/volcanoes/mount-shasta

And according to SciAm, the 1786 eruption has been deprecated: https://www.scientificamerican.com/a...ical-eruption/

It's still gonna blow someday, and when it does the railroad won't escape damage.
