Western Railroad Discussion > Is this Saco, Ca ??Date: 06/02/10 07:14 Is this Saco, Ca ?? Author: CimaScrambler I went to caption this thing this morning and couldn't remember where I shot it. Just north of Bakersfield, Ca, on the UP.
Thanks for the help. - Kit Kit Courter Menefee, CA LunarLight Photography  Date: 06/02/10 07:43 Re: Is this Saco, Ca ?? Author: oilcan Yup, looks like Saco to me, and those storage
tracks with all the tank cars is of course where the famous Bakersfield - Dolores unit oil train received its load of crude oil. Sure wouldnt know it now. The loading facility there was dismantled a couple of years ago if I recall. Date: 06/02/10 08:12 Re: Is this Saco, Ca ?? Author: NorfolkSouthern_37 image doesn't seem to be that old though does it?

Thanks, everyone. Kit Courter Menefee, CA LunarLight Photography Date: 06/02/10 17:26 Re: Is this Saco, Ca ?? Author: espeeboy Yeah, not sure when they took out the old cantilevering oil loading platform at Saco but it was some time last year. Nice crisp, clear image Kit!
