randy Lundgren elgin, tx Date: 08/26/15 16:07 Re: Just a good old SP scene Author: DynamicBrake YEAH, nice shot of the Flares. Looks like a crew member in the second unit. Thanks for sharing some great SP nostalgia.
Kent in CArmel Valley Date: 08/26/15 20:37 Re: Just a good old SP scene Author: bradleymckay Great photo, but what the photo doesn't show is that 1982, a recession year, was a really crappy one for SP. Rail freight traffic was down significantly from levels just 4 years previous. Lot's of employees, operating and otherwise, were laid off. SP never recovered...
