Western Railroad Discussion > GGRM Escapees:ATSF Crummy, SP Baggage

With the eviction deadline at Hunters Point just about three weeks away(will there be an extension?), the exodus of Golden Gate Railroad Museum equipment to new locations is apparently starting. Today's UP YSF70 South City Switcher pulled two pieces of GGRM's collection off the Coke Lead and they are now in the yard at South San Francisco as of this afternoon: caboose RPCX9261(ATSF999261) and economy baggage RPCX6796(SP6796). Any info on who has ownership and where they are headed?

The Santa Fe caboose is seen in the yard at South City this afternoon, 1-25-06. Stay tuned, there's a lot of stuff to move......

Rumor has it this car was actually painted grey at some point in its life. RPCX/SP6796 at SSF, 1-25-06.

South San Francisco has become a much more interesting place in the past year. The museum equipment sits behind the power for the Broadway Local and the Mission Bay Turn late this afternoon.

I drove right by there today too, oh well what I get for not having a camera in hand, but I had other important things to attend to. Thanks for sharing the photos.

On the outside word there is nothing else more important
than trains, they will be with us until our last all
aboard call, besides that, nothing else matters.

Well, wait a second we need to have in between the
family, our friends and our job! =)

Everything else can wait for the train to pass.

The econo bag is owned by Pacific Railroad Society. Stay tuned for more new PRS goodies leaving GGRM this week and next.

Who is the Pacific Railroad Society and where are they located?
