REAL SANTA FE RAILROADING
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
An unreal chapter of our lengthy DVD video of 50 years of Santa Fe. This full DVD is available at cspmovies.com item number D-129.
This is Tehachapi, Cajon Pass, the Los Angeles Area and the Bay Area at its best. The Needles Subdivision and Stockton Junction round out the action in this tribute to the Santa Fe’s various generations of the “Warbonnets”.
To quote Model Railroad News, “I can’t think of a better way to spend an hour and a half...”
To quote Railfan & Railroad magazine, “This prolific producer, specializing in high-quality, well researched and narrated, mostly vintage movie programs of operations mostly in the Golden State has brought back to life the evolution of Santa Fe diesel motive power… Fans of the Santa Fe’s classic diesel era and the various incarnation of its locomotive paint schemes should find this program to be enjoyable, and likely required viewing.

Them were the "Good Ole Days" for sure!
At 2:50,,the B&O loco was on a long term lease to ATSF. Even requiring a re-numbering. So, part of the deal was that ATSF was to re-number them back to their Chessie number, when returned. However, ATSF used the ATSF serif style which would immediately signal to a fan that such a loco just returned from ATSF use. This was 1979. I saw several of these way back when.
Yet another prime example that everything worthwhile is in the past, present is almost totally worthless. Thanks for taking us back temporarily..

Yes they were what a colorful time!
1:49 all of this scene is now a memory both the tower and the diamonds are gone in the late 2010s the diamond crossing was removed and replaced with a flyover bridge which takes the sunset route tracks over the former Santa Fe mainline
Thanks. I loved seeing the Santa Fe caboose. Great memories from my childhood

We love Santa Fe Cabooses as well. Reminds us of a wonderful time in US Railroad History!
Colton crossing is no more. Rebuilt some years ago to a flyover.

Your welcome thanks for watching and commenting!
And Look How Old The Tracks Are 😊
Good 👍 0l Caboose ❤ It 😊
What you have labeled as Keenbrook at around 0300 is really just West of Devore. Otherwise, great look back!
A wonderful postcard of Cajon Summit!! 🛤️

They needed some on the other end, so they are 'deadheaded.' Same goes for locos.
