Your're right - I'm glad I still had it. This was "another day at the Belt shops". But with engines I would love to see again. Gary Date: 09/20/19 14:28 Re: RI and Santa Fe at HB&T shops Author: refarkas Great mix of interesting power especially the Santa Fe B-units.
Bob Date: 09/20/19 18:04 Re: RI and Santa Fe at HB&T shops Author: Txhighballer I might have caught a short ride in that SP Tunnel Motor. I was in middle school when a train stopped at North Houston with one as a trailing unit. I knew the engineer and asked to come up into the cab. They had a set out to do, so I rode with them until they were done then watched them highball into Houston. The things a 13 year old could do then....
