Malabar Switcher Y-LAC0112 |
| Description: |
A pair of derated GP50s (with the embarassing moniker of GP25) begin their day at Malabar. One of them was spewing some kind of white smoke, indicating that something else was burning besides diesel fuel. This job work Malabar Yard on the north end of the former ATSF Redondo Branch, later the 4th District, and then the Harbor Sub. Today, the middle of this line is a rusted parallelgram, but Malabar still sees work every weekday morning. |

| Title: |
Y-LAC0204 Yard Hopper |
| Description: |
BNSF's afternoon yard hopper job that runs from Malabar to Los Angeles Junction's A Yard to Commerce Yard skipped the last stop on this day as it picked up 49 loads from the Los Angeles Junction (mostlly hidden by those white buildings on the left there). The train is seen here pulling out of the LAJ and heading home to Malabar on a brief bit of Union Pacific trackage rights as it pulls across the LA River on LASL track next to Downy Road. The extra third diesel is likely a unit being leased to LAJ rotating out for maintainence. |
