SP... NS... Where could I be?

---

Salinas maybe?

Gemco, CA.

No, and no.


Hint: it IS an ex-SP yard, like FJC and redzone guessed...

Guadalupe, CA: Where you arrive on vacation and go home on probation.

Axy

Oxnard?

Guadalupe, CA it is!

This was about 2 months ago, visiting Guadalupe to catch northbound 799 and a southbound QRVCI (if memory seves). the QRVCI picked up the NS unit and hauled it south. adding to it's existing lashup of about 8 engines - for only about 20 cars! No idea what became of the SP unit.

Glad the SP unit was clean with no tag evidince. I was in Phoenix today and caught a Westbound local with 2 SP units, one with the UP Patch number on it, and the 2ND unit which looked terrible no thanks to taggers messing it all up! I took pics of it though, but I for one hate seeing locomotives look like that!
