Nostalgia & History > SP F's along the Truckee RiverDate: 01/15/13 23:06 SP F's along the Truckee River Author: photobob Five F units lead a westbound along the Truckee River in the early morning light back in 1962. The roar of five F units with the sound of the river was a moment you can never forget.

SP exited the livestock business relatively early. WP, UP, Milw, BN all stuck with it longer, not sure about ATSF. Best regards, Rob L.

There was a Fly fishing club in that spot in the 70s if so. Cool photo. Glad the weather is keeping you at the scanner. Has the ice in the front yard turned blue yet like the Glaciers in Alaska?
