Def not Lomita but I'd sure be interested to find out. I didn't even know Santa Fe 999563 was still with us. And what is the wide vision with it?

I can't confirm, but it looked to be around 15 inch.

There's more stuff on that property that what can be seen from the open gate. One hint I can provide without giving the location away; it sits about equal distance between two different UP sub division main lines. Plus the owner is not in the Railroad business.

Peltier Rd near Acampo, CA between the Fresno and Sac Subs? I thought there was a house out there with some goodies, but I can't seem to locate it at the moment.

Ah yes now I found it. 1111 W Peltier Rd. Looks like there is a turntable into a roundhouse/house and quite a mainline. Seems to be at least a box car in addition to the cabooses.

That's one heck of a mainline they've got, following the riverbank and such

Interesting that the semaphore signal is painted in the SP pre-aluminum color scheme of black and white.
