X-5863 East pulls out onto the mainline after leaving Bayshore Yard. The old Visitation Tower can be seen in the background.

Probably just a local with power like that. Maybe the Millbrae job. Great shot of a bygone time, Bob.

That New Haven boxcar couldn't be much further from home.

So much has changed since then. Who woulda predicted today a four-track mainline passes through here!
