Interesting SP Steam Locomotive move 1960
Author: photobob

On one of my many trips as a teenager to Oakland to photograph the SP I got this shot at West Oakland of SP2467 being moved to the Harrison RR Park in Oakland. I don't know the whole story but someone out there might add to this.

Would really like to see the photos of her insertion into the park using temporary track. Here's what she looked like a few years late, courtesy of my $5 box camera..

Now I see how they got the engine near the park. But maneuvering it in place - looks like it was complicated!
Thanks
