IC 1459         
Another scene from Central Ave. The UP delivers to the IC in the small yard where the SP train is parked. The SP train on the left is on the same track as the TP train from the previous picture. The IC switcher is pulling a string of cars out of Mays yard. A very unusual site is the NS local on the IC main. Although the NS interchanges at Central Ave with the UP, I have only seen this scene once in all my visits.

Jim Satterwhite General Definitely hard to duplicate this one today. The SW-14s and the SP unit will not be found anywhere! Is this a scan of a print? 11/21/2010 2:40:09 AM
Jerry Sires General Yes, its a scan from a slide. I have more I want to scan but my stuff is in the US and I am in the Philippines. 11/21/2010 4:55:00 AM
