SEE Dunsmuir RailCAM at 7:48AM today. That two tone grey car leading the four strikes a nice SP cord with me.
Thanks for getting up early Bob. Date: 06/22/17 16:25 Re: The "Yerba Buena" rolls through Dunsmuir this morning Author: DFWJIM It seems like the Starlight is late everyday into Dunsmuir.

------------------------------------------------------- > YB looks ex-UP.... Per the car records compiled by Bill Farmer, Yerba Buena started life as 11 double bedroom sleeper Homestead, C&O 2800. However, John Kirkwood says it started out as an Imperial series sleeper. Either way it started out as an 11 bedroom car.
