Nostalgia & History > 5 Santa Fe Cabooses

Near the end of Roger Puta's "My Santa Fe" slide program at Winterail 1986 he included slides of about 10 AT&SF cabooses. Here's five.

1. ATSF Caboose 999279 in March 1981

2. ATSF Caboose 999140 probably on detouring train at Keddie Wye in March 1983

3. ATSF Caboose 999017 in December 1979

4. ATSF Caboose 999177 in February 1984

5. ATSF Caboose 999186 in February 1984


Enjoy,

66

This is headed eastbound at MP 1172 (Franklin Canyon) on the Stockton Sub Division in Northern California.

#1 was prolly between Lugo & Martinez Spur.

These are nice---best part of a train.

Marty, the Santa Fe did not have any "Cabooses", they had "Waycars".

Probably the same spot, if not the same train, as photo 3 in this thread:
