SpecR, good to have you with us. This is almost as much fun as actually watching trains trackside. I believe I have seen the SP shops you speak of, are they along I-5 across the bay from SFO in Oakland? If so, they still have lots of action and I last saw them about six months ago during a trip to SFO. Jim

I just wanted to introduce myself, and greet everyone here. I've been into Trains since I was 10 or so, when my sister started going to a school for the gifted in Los Angeles. I would go with my father on the drives to my sister's school, and on the way we would pass the ex-southern pacific locomotive shops (i forgot the actual name, but its in the same field as the metrolink service shops next to the 5 freeway), as well as the downtown LA intermodal yard.

My friends kind of make fun of my fascination with trains, but blah who cares. I guess its because I'm young, out-going, you know, typical college kid who likes to party and have fun...Anyway, *HELLO EVERYONE!* [:D]
