Nostalgia & History > My Kind of Super BowlDate: 02/04/07 13:31 My Kind of Super Bowl Author: Bowknot In January, 1985, Super Bowl XIX was held at Stanford Stadium. The SP ran a special train in connection with the event.
1) Just leaving Suisun City after a brief stop. Due to a chemical spill on the Suisun Bay Bridge, the dignitaries on the train were bussed westward. Steinheimer stayed on the train, however. 2) Parked at Redwood Tower. 3) The dining car staff takes a break. Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 02/04/07 13:32 by Bowknot.

5) A commute train passes by. 6) Finally some sunlight! An SP cop gave me just five seconds to take the shot. The bumper sticker said "Miami Who?"
