Sorry, don't have location info, but Dick lived in CA, so it's possible

In the series of SW-1's we've been seeing, it's interesting to see variations of headlamps, bells, stacks, spark arrestors, air horns and the locations of some of these items.

It's a shame that CSRM hasn't restored the Holly Sugar SW1 to it's original number SP 1000. It was SP's first diesel. They have the first and last steam locomotives of the SP restored and on diaplay. Southern Pacific's first diesel also needs to be restored and be put on display. Hopefully they also plan to acquire the last diesel bought by SP to round out the collection.

Not sure how many sw1 photos we've seen yet but there were 661 total produced so Mr Valmont has a few more to go, and I'm glad as its been really great to see these.

Congrats on cornering the market of SW-1 photos. I remember the SW-1 the Rock Island used for their coach engine at LaSalle Street Station.

If the 1st pic was in the OC and the 2nd pic was in Tracy, CA, that's likely the same unit.

HS No. 1; former SP 1000, now at CSRM. Here's a photo of it at SP Taylor Yard, Los Angeles on 1/2/69 nearing delivery to the sugar refinery at Santa Ana.
