Nostalgia & History > UP biz car 114 in East LA and AnaheimDate: 08/12/19 22:21 UP biz car 114 in East LA and Anaheim Author: GreenFlag Here's a photo of UP business car #114 on what used to be called the "Whiskey Spur" in East LA, located adjacent to the old depot there seen on 11-2-75. I don't know if UP baggage car 904289 is for equipment only. I don't think it is a steam generator car?
Third photo taken less than 2 weeks later when 'on spot' along the UP Anaheim depot on 11-15-75. I don't know how long this went on, but I remember this being somewhat of an annual occurrence for it to be spotted there late in the year, maybe to "wine and dine" local customers? It was placed there also in early December 1974 for a few days. Date: 08/12/19 22:28 Re: UP biz car 114 in East LA and Anaheim Author: GreenFlag Here's another photo of the 114 next to the UP depot. At this time, at least part of the depot I believe was used as a pool supply store. Since then, the depot has been moved to another nearby location, probably related to when Lincoln Ave underpass was built.
