Can a Mod move the thread for me?

I think they transloaded onto trucks out of the port. Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 01/21/21 00:52 by Railbaron.

The photo on Tennessee Pass looks like it is probably around 1979 or earlier. I spotted an Evergreen box car and those were repainted to SP around 1979 when SP shut down Evergreen and absorbed the boxcars into it's fleet.

With three 40' XM's in sight, probably mid-70s, or earlier. Didn't see many solid SP sets in those days.
