Found an old photo of a Santa Fe cub scout from the 1980s. I was using crappy negative film and cheap processing at that time.
From 06/13/1997 at Grants NM, FP-45 95. In 1999 she was donated to the Western America Railroad Museum at Barstow. When I was a kid and saw these in photos, I thought they were the coolest things on wheels. I still think they look mighty sharp.
A '51 Ford F1 back there. We had a '50 which was pretty much identical except for the grille. Although I took my driver test in my Dad's '66 Caddy, the pickup was the first vehicle I drove most. One time, I pulled into a local restaurant to eat and there was a truck driver sitting at a booth at the windows and he saw me walk in. He said, "If you can drive one of those, you can drive a semi. I never did drive a semi but I did drive a large box truck and did pretty well, backing into fairly tight situations, if I do say so, myself. Doug
The car coupled to the Hi-levels is the Diner - not the transition car. Note the door shown is for loading commissary supplies and the smoke coming from the roof top ventilators.
