Nostalgia & History > SP Black Widow SD9 w/train 1965Date: 08/10/18 12:35 SP Black Widow SD9 w/train 1965 Author: valmont This terrific Alan Miller shot was taken in June 1965 in the Saugus, CA area. SD9 #5490 is in the lead followed by #5488 and the last 2 units appear to be SD35's, looks like #4829 is the first of them.

I should have done a search, sorry about the re-post! Date: 08/10/18 13:55 Re: SP Black Widow SD9 w/train 1965 Author: TCnR thanks for the re-post.
Amazing to see the combination of paint and locomotive models that can happen at those dates. Date: 08/10/18 14:47 Re: SP Black Widow SD9 w/train 1965 Author: dlh Is Alan Miller still around or has he passed?

You should have remembered this shot from back in 2012 It sticks out in my mind and I can't believe it was posted again, Nice catch John and another lesson learned in search back a decade or so to see if it was already posted. I even used spell check to make sure my spelling was wright.

Date: 08/10/18 15:37 Re: SP Black Widow SD9 w/train 1965 Author: E25 One advantage of "reposted" images is that they become viewable on TO in the present larger and sharper format than was previously available.
So don't be bashful about "re-posting" shots like this! Greg Stadter Phoenix, AZ Date: 08/10/18 15:37 Re: SP Black Widow SD9 w/train 1965 Author: valmont dlh Wrote:

I missed it the first time. All good photos as well as good programs on TV are worth another look. Thanks for your sharing.

first time around. |
