Nostalgia & History > Before the Gold Line in PasadenaDate: 12/01/05 11:56 Before the Gold Line in Pasadena Author: NscaleMike Very early days for me railfanning, taken at the depot. September 1981
Mike Henderson, NV  Date: 12/01/05 12:22 Re: Before the Gold Line in Pasadena Author: PasadenaSub Good stuff, Mike. Looks like a SDP40F/F40PH pairing on Amtrak #35, the westbound Desert Wind. At first I thought it was a late running Southwest Limited, due to all the high-level cars in the consist and the afternoon sun angle. The Desert Wind often had several low-level cars in the consist from its inception up until the very early 80's -a mix of heritage and Amfleet, plus an ex-ATSF El Capitan car or two.
