    BN running down NW 15th

    On the same day as the other photo, the BN 214 picks up a car along NW 15th Ave in Portland. I can't remember who the customer was, it may have been the Meier & Frank wearhouse. After 12 years some of the details have slipped my mind.

    A Sort of Homecoming

    SP's headquarters were located at 1 Market Street in San Francisco. It seems only appropriate, then, that ex-SP equipment can still be found working the last remaining industries in the city that still ship by rail. Here's the South City Switcher running down Quint St. in the heart of SF's...

    Four geeps on the South City Switcher squeal their way through the tight curve between Arthur St. and Quint St. This and several other curves along the route restrict this job to 4-axle units.
