San Luis Obispo roundhouse... |
Description: |
Well, not really a roundhouse anymore, but a heck of a lot of service tracks, and lots of Coast line power scattered about. There was a 5 or 6 unit string of F's, several GP35's, GP9's, and a couple of GE U25B's. In the Bay Area, GP35's and U boats weren't usually seen much, at least north and east of San Jose. |

Yikes, yet another SP E unit !!! |
Description: |
I am surprised I even got this shot, considering we were riding in the coach, and really had no warning of Train 98's approach. Of course, this was the usual meeting point (or south of here) for 98 and 99 at this period of time, since you could ride 98 down from the Bay Area to SLO and then catch 99 right back. I think it was jus a 20 to 25 minute scheduled lay-over between trains, and the surly SP ticket agents would always get nervous about us buying tickets for such a roundtrip, admonishing us that SP would not be responsible for us missing the connection between 98 and 99! Duh. I think we did that trip twice, one time with Parlor Car seats in the boat tail. Yeah, the Coast train still had the real Parlor car on the rear most days, with extra fare for the ride. Oh, and there's a Coast line Geep, under the sanding rig. |

Nice crew office for SP at SLO... |
Description: |
Yeah, that's the "yard office" at SLO, pretty nice compared to prefab jobs elsewhere, huh? You can see lots of passenger train crew members lurking about the doorway. One guy looks like a special agent or a trainmaster, wearing that hat and tie, eh? The fellow walking south in the foul of main track 2 is no doubt the "flagman" for our train 99. |

Classic San Luis Obispo Shot. |
Description: |
Or at least as close as I could get it. You can see that behind the Automatic Buffet Car, there's FOUR more Shasta coaches, and then the parlor-observation. Palm trees, and a mission-design station. Yeah, this is California. |

Head end shot of train 99. |
Description: |
We got brave (you notice we hadn't been riding the vestibules so far- that's why the pictures are thru the windows!) and strolled up to the head end as 99 stopped at SLO for crew change and servicing. Gee, one of the yardmen is standing at the water hose cart, ready to add water to the units, I guess, if needed. Of the 2 or 3 folks standing and chatting, the late Gerry Salsig is the one facing towards the eng, right hand on hip, and left hand holding his camera bag and whatever. So, I guess that's my "Kodak" camera bag and notepad on the ground between me and them. |

Built in 1953 by Budd in Lot #9613-135 as AT&SF 48 seat leg rest chair #2835, 1 of 45 such cars (#2816-#2860) built in that Lot, which was ordered in September 1952; cars were delivered between September and December 1953. In 1971, Amtrak acquired 42 of these chairs as #4810-#4828 and #4850-#4872, the #2835 as #4827. In 1980, Amtrak converted 40 of these chairs to HEP as #4700-#4739, the #4827 was converted to #4714 in March of that year. In 1982-1983, Amtrak reconfigured 10 of these chairs to 88 seat coaches for the CLOCKER service, the #4714 was reconfigured to #7627 in March 1983. 3 of these reconfigured cars, including the #7627, were sold in 1997 to the Providence & Worcester. 2 of these 3 cars received names, the #7627 was named RHODE ISLAND. Scanned with an Epson V550 from a Kodachrome original 35mm slide. |
