Amtrak/SSW 9389
Author: HardYellow

Amtrak eastbound leaving snow shed at Norden, California June 1975... I think number 12 (?). The original photo was taken with a 3.5 Rollie using Kodak Ektachrome slide film. I had the 8x10 print made and I think the enlarger was out of focus. The slide is very sharp.

Can't be #12, that's a Shasta Route train.  Has to be #6, although what the name of it at the time escapes me.

#6 is a lot closer than #12, but since it is coming out of the snow sheds on the #1 track on top of Donner, it would have to be Westbound, so how about #5?

Was this the same day 4449 went east over Donner?
