Nostalgia & History > SP Business Car Oregon at DunsmuirDate: 12/13/12 20:01 SP Business Car Oregon at Dunsmuir Author: photobob I forgot when I took this but I believe it was the early 1990's. The business car Oregon came to town with a single unit and some kind of hopper car. It is shown here in front of the Dunsmuir Depot with 7504 East leaving town after a crew change. The fueling tracks were still in use to the left of the photo as well as a number of helper units.

There are a couple of stray photos on our website.
