On June 15, 1985 the Central Coast NRHS Chapter bid "Farewell to the Harrimans". CalTrain had started using their new gallery cars and F40PH locomotives shortly before this. The excursion made two round trips between San Jose and San Francisco with different SP commute power on each leg. In this shot we're getting ready to leave San Jose on the first leg of the trip with SP passenger SD-9's 4450 & 4451, known as "Huff" & "Puff". I believe one of these locomotives still exists.
