Nostalgia & History > SP Train 28 the "Overland" leaving Martinez early 1960'sDate: 08/08/18 18:57 SP Train 28 the "Overland" leaving Martinez early 1960's Author: photobob I believe when I took this shot the "Overland" was trying to get dumped by the SP. The mail contract was gone so for awhile it ran as a three car train. I forgot what year I took this.

It's always nice to see the train number displayed too. When SP started using the lead unit number, everything went downhill.

(no such locomotive was ever produced) |
