Posted by GEORGE REDMOND on February 7, 2008  Very nice shot. Posted by Jeff Swanson on February 7, 2008  Thanks for the information and photo, Alex. (And thanks to the screeners for allowing it.) Posted by Randy Doss on February 7, 2008  Spectacular shot. Thanks for thinking of it. Posted by Mont Panichjeerasin on February 7, 2008  It remains a lot of memory that will be restored at the same time. Posted by J. C. Smith, Jr. on February 8, 2008  The SP was, of course, on the ground level here, and those umbrella sheds on the upper level were for platforms used by SP's Interurban Electric suburban lines, which used cars similar in appearance to Pacific Electric Blimps. On my first trip west, in 1968, I was fortunate enough to ride a fan trip out of this station behind an SP Alco DL643H Diesel Hydraulic/EMD GP9 combination. My last trip into the station (even though the building itself was closed) was in 1999, when I stepped off an Amtrak California train from San Jose. The stop has since been replaced by the new facility in nearby Emeryville. This is an extraordinary image, Alex, thanks. Posted by larrym on February 8, 2008  Great shot, Alex. I think you are destined to be one of the elite of rail photographers. Posted by John Benner on February 8, 2008  Great eye for for interesting compositions. Posted by George W. Hamlin on February 9, 2008  Great shot!
