It's hard to see the sides of the cars from so close but back then they were still somewhat maintained and were interesting to look at due to the variety of paint schemes

I remember this headlights bouncing around as a train crossed the Suisun Marsh. And my favorite running route for the cross country or track team took me across the Cal-P at the Suisun depot where I would hopefully spot a train.

You can add clickity clack to you list also as that's fading away.
