Click To View Image

On Tuesday, April 8, 2008, Union Pacific (UP) ran a special train on the former SP coast line powered by UP 6936. We started following it from Elkhorn Slough, south of Watsonville CA and followed it to Santa Clara, CA. The train passes the historic Agnew Depot, the home of California Central Model Railroad Club.
UP 6936 is an EMD DDA40X. Reportedly: it was built in 1971 by EMD builders number 35510.
