Western Railroad Discussion > chasing the 6396Date: 09/21/14 21:48 chasing the 6396 Author: tc Well its not a DD40 but it is a Patched SP and I figured I better get as many of these as I can before they go the way of the DD40's. This is the daily N/B Lahtrop that makes its way through soledad canyon. 1st shot is the train approaching Cp Honby in santa clarita CA 2nd & 3rd is the lathrop entering the first tunnel leading into soledad canyon, just leaving CP soledad.

Date: 09/21/14 22:01 Re: chasing the 6396 Author: tc I figured I better catch as many old SP things as I could before they are removed so off I went to Mojave. 1st is the train approaching the yard limits. 2nd / 3rd is the old SP signal bridge north of mojave.
   Date: 09/21/14 22:05 Re: chasing the 6396 Author: tc I couldn't make it up to the three amigos so I had to shoot from across the freeway. on the way back South out of mojave I was able to catch this red & silver ATSF unit as rear DPU pushing his train off the UP and onto BNSF tracks. Thanks for your time.
