Southern Pacific in Oregon 2

[@kenpalmer1965]

That was neat seeing that caboose at the end and the brakeman waving! What a very nostalgic sight for us railroaders!

Southern Pacific Started Removing the Gyra lights long before up took over, Starting in the mid to late Eighties.

How I miss the SP........ Never...... will there be another like her!

[@kenpalmer1965]

That's the truth for sure!

This is some excellent footage - the L-shaped engineer's window is clearly visible.

The UP engine ruined this lash up, but then the BN saved it! Lol

[@jamesd2128]

That looked like a real hobo at 2.37, not some thrill seeking KZbinr.

UNION PACIFIC had rotary beacons on thier GP9' SD40''s SD9's GE's SWITCHERS back then! i saw them! they's on the films made of early diesels of UP!

[@Lightwolf333]

Awesome stuff dude!

[@1XRanger]

The Southern Pacific used Pyle-National "Gyralite"s on their locomotives. The union Pacific did not use a rotating signal light. After the U.P./S.P. merger the Pyle ocsculating signal lights were removed by the U.P.
