How I remember the SP
Author: lamta_jay

Nothing special here just pure SP lash-ups you don't see anymore

#1 at Oban or Ansel in the Antalope Valley ( I don't remember).....1995
#2 at Palmdale and about to take the Saugus Line to LA.....January of 1996
#3 at Lathrop (locals call it Lay throw up } coal train going from being a westbound to an eastbound.....June of 1996
     actually on the way home from the annual RR swap meet in Sacramento

Thanks for looking...its mostly yellow now !

I'd say those were quite special indeed!   SP was looking so good toward the end!

Road crossing doesn't exist anymore. Been replaced by a new overpass!

With respects to Hardyellow, this is at the east (south) end of Oban siding, just a few miles north of Lancaster, CA. Rosamond and Ansel Hill can be seen in the distance. 

Great photos, really like seeing those views from Oban and Palmdale from back in SP days.

Correct Ryan. It is the east end of Oban. I don't agree about the "south end" as I don't recognize the stUPid.


PS: GREAT photos Jay!!!!
