That's the first picture (#3) I have seen of the rear of this train. Was that an SP observation or private car?

That was the photo runby at Milpitas.  The depot is just visible through the crowd on the right.

That's ex-SP 2901, which at the time was Central Coast Railroad Club's private car "Ferroequinologist."

The thrid photo was taken just East of Dresser Bridge.  The house on the right used to be part of the brick plant.

Holy Cow !

Westbound does not bellow. Am just learning how to write with the new fonts on Trainorders.

Plus my 7.5 year old computer had a fatal crash and I am learning how to use the new replacement's 8.1 Windows.
