A train of export coal enters the Southern Pacific's Dolores Yard behind a trio of AC4400CW diesels in Februrary 1996. Meanwhile, a pair of SP "Cruds" - the nickname for Espee's ubiquitous SW1500s - switch a cut of cars on an adjacent track. In just a few short years, because of both the Southern Pacific-Union Pacific merger and the construction of the Alameda Corridor (which carries UP's and BNSF's tracks below grade to downtown Los Angeles), this area would be completely rebuilt.
Not
just heritage schemes, not just commemorative schemes - this album is devoted to some of the world's most interesting paint schemes, past or present.
