Local Freights Around Sacramento 9/7/24
On 9/7/24, a group of 3 of us spent the afternoon around Sacramento just to see what we could see. It was a good day to have gone out, because as luck would have it, UP 1004, one of the last remaining GP60s still sporting SSW Scarlet and Gray, was assigned to the Folsom Turn. The early afternoon light make for some really great shots of the engine as it worked the industries around West Sacramento. With it now being 28 years since the end of the Southern Pacific, fleeting moments like these will only continue to become more and more scarce.
After photographing the Folsom Turn we made our way over to Polk, where the BNSF Sacramento Local was working the yard there, and we were just in time to watch its pair of GEVOs throttle out of town. We made our way to Elder Creek Road for one final shot of the train as it notched up to track speed for its return trip to Stockton.
Enjoy this look at scenes in 2024 that will only become more and more noteworthy!

    Hi! Off-topic question sorry, but was triggered by “West Sacramento” coupled with seemingly a thing, an itch, an affinity for, just something, I have for the Sacramento Northern Railroad. I walk trails on the former SN right of way and my question is what was the industry in the town, or township of Oxford that warranted a spur constructed 10 miles beyond Clarksburg; subsequently, when did it cease operation? No biggie, just curious if anyone knows. Cheers. PS took some pics of Lisbon? trestle remnants sticking out of the water while dog walking in the Arcade area.

    I was born in 1950, and when I was a little kid my parents would go camping at the beach. I was always so tickled to see the Daylight go by. Sometimes there'd be another steam train that would go by, or just a bare locomotive and tender, but they were just brutal looking black things. The Daylight was beautiful. I was so disappointed when they switched to diesel, but that's progress.

    I think that I found another reason for higher ridership numbers for 1930. So, prohibition law was quite established. It is well known that residents from San Francisco came to Marin County to drink because it was harder to enforce this law. Just think, many of historic bars in Marin County still just very short distance the NWP tracks. Examples: 2 am Club, Silver Peso, Matteucci’s, all bars on Broadway st in Fairfax, The Paper Mill at Forrest Knolls.

  • @truebras
    @truebras หลายเดือนก่อน

    Great documentary. By watching it I was able to identify parts of Marin where the NWP rails used to be. Note, in the slide where you show the 1930 x 1940 ridership, you have to take in account that the Golden Gate Bridge was open in 1937. So, traveling by bus and crossing the bridge was likely faster than train and ferry. I also think that taking a bus and crossing the bridge was the sign of modern times coming in. For good or bad.
