a couple along the metrolink valley sub
Author: tc

While out doing chores today I ran into a very very late saugus local doing some switching near CP honby so with as clean as the lead unit 1438 was I figured I would shoot it before she meets the fate as sister unit 1442 and the caboose.

Great view in pic. #2! Sure does not look like a California sky in the first one:}

Bring it trackside for the next "event" chase. I'm sure we'll run into each other.

If I were still working in Valencia, I'd say let's just meet for lunch, but that won't work anymore.

Awesome photos as always. Soledad Canyon is still one of those rare photo locations.

Charles, I'm out of your books at the store. Next time you are in the Valley...

I didn't know about that one either, I'll have to take a detour to see it the next time we are at my in-law's.

Better go quick, that plaque has been stolen and then replaced at least 4 times that I'm aware of. Won't venture a guess on who stole them.

It always bothered me that they didn't protect that area better. Seems a shame to let such a significant location go to Hell.
