I lived in Anaheim during the 80's and I remember the Ringling Bro's Circus parked on that first stretch of track so that it could parade from there on streets to it's destination. Nice memories, thanks for sharing!
Born and raised in Anaheim. Used to sit on the curb across from the of Fremont fields and place pennies on the tracks for the sugar beet trains to crush in the late 50s, Thanks for the memories,
Im really familiar with the area, I worked out of the UPS hub between Ball and Cerritos, just off State College blvd. For a few years I worked in the yard moving trailers, and the spur to Ghanal lumber ran right behind our yard. Im surprised that none of those lumber loads went there. They also used to park the Ringling Circus train right behind our yard on that spur.
After a closer look at the video - the train has its full Center-Beams backing into Altium, so I think they did spot them in Ganahl Lumber after all. That is my guess.
Good eye! This one puzzled us as well - somehow inbetween chasing it from International Paper and Altium Packing - it switched out the centerbeams. It had the cars backing into Altium, so we believe it probably switched them at Ganahl Lumber immediately north of it. (Also it is possible the tank car went to Diversified CPC International directly East.) Seems like they packed a lot of switching into a little space! Thanks for watching the videos!!!
Dose this train ever go further east along the tracks closer to 57 freeway????? When I stayed at the Salvation army shelter durning the pandemic thought I saw it go east for hour then come back cross over BNSF/Metrolinck tracks....enjoyed this video Happy this is still running😊❤
This is my first time down there investigating and following the trains. Looking at Google maps the line definitely extends beyond the 57 - I just can't tell it gets rail service down there. Might be worth more trips down there! Thanks for checking out the videos!

That would have been great to have seen!

Thanks for watching the video - would have liked to see that in person!
One area by Cerritos Ave backs into Lumber company next to the Salvation Army Homeless shelter along side Lewis st
I remember when they always had 50 or more cars and 3 locomotives to pull all of cars down the line. Those were the days.
That would very impressive to see!

Great video. Just wonderful how you captured and explained the whole trip! Keep up the great work and happy new Year!
Glad you are enjoying them. Hope to put out more soon!
Great video!
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it
Your narration really adds to the quality of your videos. Blessings!
Thanks - appreciate it. Good to hear.
Has this always been a UP line or was a SP like the sub that goes through Whittier to La Habra.
Yep! Ex. SP line
I think part these routes. of these are possibly of the Pacific Electric (And SP)
Actually majority sp and then PE
Awesome video!. Where did they drop off the center beam lumber cars?

Nice job 👏
Thanks! Appreciate you checking out the videos.
Great vid. Love the street running in Anaheim. What is actually left in the City of Orange that UP services?
Sorry, I am not sure. Perhaps others here will have a better idea.
@@MrNotch9 Thank you. No worries.
Cool!

I miss the wig wag we had . Dam UP
I have not followed this local for 15 years since this guy Chris walker used to chase them and repost on the internet.
Interesting train - just came upon it recently. Certainly worth looking more into. Thanks!
Itchy! Nice
Can't beat the Simpsons!!! Thanks!
