Sierra Railroad's 75th Anniversary Train
Author: SierraRail

It was a wet, rainy night, and the booze flowed freely. Observation car 2901, formerly owned by SP and Central Coast Railway Club. 1972.

Stan, I often wonder how Conductor Louie Antone stayed on his feet that night!

I'll have to dig out a picture I have of Louie. A real character.

Watch Sierra RR #3 slide to a stop at the depot in the TV show "Petticoat Junction" from the 60's. It happens right at 6:00 minutes in:
