Nostalgia & History > A nice Santa Fe lineup in Somerville,Tx

Dec 76
A nice lineup of F, GP7, CF7 units at the yard in Somerville.
This was along the Santa Fe Southern Division between Sealy and Milano where the line from Silsbee came in.
I believe 275 would eventually be the last Santa Fe F7 cab unit in service.
It ended up being the last F unit converted to a CF7 - released from Cleburne as 2417 in March 1978.
A number of B units were still running around in the old passenger paint scheme.

Man those things sounded great going up Yarboro Hill both east and westbound...

Fascinating lashup.

Hi Gary-

Happy New Year! Long time no see…

Hope all is well with you…

Up to my ears in it on Facebook - with my Santa Fe Group alone hovering around 5600+ members. That high number is solely because it is a blend of former employees and fans.

Was wondering if I could share your amazing image and post with my Group, providing full credits, of course…

I would really appreciate the gesture.

Sincerely,

Bob Finan
