Santa Fe 13 years ago today at Summit, CA...
Author: PasadenaSub

Here's one I happened to have scanned and I noticed it was taken on July 5, 1993. Just a typical Santa Fe morning eastbound at the Summit crossovers in Cajon Pass. There was still a bit of snow left on Mt. Baldy in the background, and also note the trio of dirtbike riders to the right of the train. The consist had two models no longer found on the BNSF roster, with F45u 5954 leading an SD40-2, Kodachrome C30-7, and another F45u.

Thanks for looking,

Rich

Great shot! Two years and a day later on 7/6/95 I made my first
visit there and got Santa Fe warbonnet 644 leading an eastbound.
Blew my mind to see that mountain (Mt.Baldy) with snow on it.

And no thanks to that manifest losing it on Cajon, SAnta Fe began putting the fence up that prevented us fans to hang around summit!
