Historic Watsonville Junction Photos?
Author: kevin2472

Hi all I'm curious if anyone has any historic photos of the Southern Pacific Watsonville Junction yard particularly the roundhouse area, I know where it was but I'd like to see photos so I can see where everything was laid out. I work in the yard regularly and it would be cool to piece together the history and changes the yard has seen over the years! Old photos of the yard seem to be hard to come by online for some reason

Historicaerials.com has imagery from 1952 and 1968, if that helps:
