Not sure which is in need of a paint job more, the Ford Galaxy or this SN GP7. Pic taken May 1982.

Do you know the photo location. Every day a loco would come into Chico behind a SN Geep. Some street running through the center of town.

Marty...as I get older...(haha) and older..my memory is starting to fade....I took this pic at a WP yard...a friend and I were on a trip to the Feather River, when we stopped and took some pics....before being asked nicely to leave the property...somewhere near Oroville? Sorry not much help ...

Yes it does. Oroville is just 19 miles from Chico. The local would use SP trakage to Durham and then leave the main for it's downtown trek. The local came out of Yuba City. The yard could very well be the one there.
