    Circa 1983 this westbound SP manifest taken at Pepper Avenue overpass...one of SoCal's favorite hangout for Railfans.

    Hey Jeff...

    Are you here (San Bernardino) by chance??
    :D
    Shot taken January of '84...I believe it may have been their "maiden" voyage...of these rebuilt SD45B's.
    I know this is an SP area...but what the heck.

    Or were you among this over zealous bunch down at the bottom of the yard at West Colton, one weekend...about 22 yrs ago...watching an empty beat train pass by??

    Brings back great memories. Hangin' out at West Colton, the A-B-B-A set at San Bernadino and one of my favs......the beet train.
