Amtrak 525 |
| Description: |
NORMAN OK -- Amtrak SDP40F 525, hauling the northbound Lone Star, pulls to a stop in Norman. Regrettably I neglected to date this slide but it is in the early years of Amtrak as evidenced by the red nose and headless arrow. Therefore the date listed is a best guess. I worked as wire editor for The Norman Transcript and we used this photo to illustrate Amtrak's plans to discontinue the Lone Star Route. Ironcally the picture and story were on the front page of our annual Progress Edition. The edition extolled the virtues and progressof Norman and the surrounding area. |

AMTK 528 |
| Description: |
A San Diego-bound "San Diegan" has just crossed the Santa Ana River and entered the city of Orange on a typically gloomy April day in 1975. The five car train is being pulled by one of Amtrak's ubiquitous SDP40F diesels (built by EMD in June 1973). In the background, just behind the rear of the train, one can see the Orange Freeway (the "57 Freeway") under construction in Anaheim, and beyond that is Anaheim Stadium, the home since 1966 of the California Angels (later renamed the Anaheim Angels, and currently the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim). This stadium, now renamed Angel Stadium, is, in 2012, the fourth oldest baseball stadium in the major leagues (behind Boston's Fenway Park [1912], Chicago's Wrigley Field [1914] and L.A.'s Dodger Stadium [1962]). |

AMTK 528 |
| Description: |
In 1975, much of Orange County was still somewhat agricultural. A San Diego-bound "San Diegan" has just crossed the Santa Ana River and entered the city of Orange on a typically gloomy April day in 1975. The five car train is being pulled by one of Amtrak's ubiquitous SDP40F diesels (528, built by EMD in June 1973). Within a few short years, the orange groves and eucalyptus tree wind breaks would all be bulldozed in order to make way for more urban sprawl, and the area in this photo is unrecognizable today - This area is all warehouses, factories and businesses, and access to the tracks here is accessable only at a few grade crossings. |
