Coming through the 110 Freeway Tunnel
Title:  Coming through the 110 Freeway Tunnel
Description:  The El Segundo has just pulled off the Torrance Lead and is bringing the rest of its train through the tunnel under the 100 Freeway in South Los Angeles. Soon it will throw the switch to the El Segundo Led and then shove to Hawthorne.

LOW20 El Segundo Local
Title:  LOW20 El Segundo Local
Description:  This is a shot I've wanted for years, but never had the right light. Today, the LOW20 did LOW10's work at Conoco in Gardena and then ended up shoving to Vought in Hawthorne. That meant the train was facing east in the morning. Unfortunately, this normally green area (in winter I guess) was dirt dry today and I couldn't use my SLR. Had to take the shot with the phone because of the tight mesh chainlink. Still, happy to finally have it.

Old meets new at Myers Street
Title:  Old meets new at Myers Street
Description:  It's February of 2008 at Myers Street, where Union Pacific keeps its power for the El Segundo and Torrance jobs. While I can't say which was which, this shot shows the transition period when Gensets were first introduced and Cruds and Geeps were just holding on for their last days.
