Caboose at LA Harbor
Author: SoCalRailFan

I did a road trip today from Riverside to LA and then down to LA Harbor before heading home. Not many photo ops today to say the least, but I did catch this caboose at Pier B St near Anaheim Way. Anyone know anything about this? I'll also throw in some other shots.

Looks like UP 25801, used as a shoving platform. Been assigned down there for a long time now. Looks like hell now, much worse than the last time I saw it a couple years ago.

More here, plus a couple shots of mine of the same car in better times.

LA City Hall---remember the "Dragnet" TV show? "This is the city...." "We were working the day watch out of Homicide, investigating the death of the Red Car system...."

Bob,
Funny, but then again not.
