Summer 1998 Redding Trip Photo Page
Since I have so many photos from past trips to Redding, I only selected a few to post to the Web from this trip. I mainly was experimenting with my new Camera, a Minolta 400si. Click here for more photos from previous Redding trips.

| Description
|
| (67K) At San Luis Obispo, a nice view of train #14 with the brand new pedestrian foot bridge in the background.
|
| (52K) The Coast Starlight has gone into the freight business with two boxcars on the rear. Another view of the foot bridge at the top of the photo.
|
| (44K) In Oakland Jack London Square Station, the new crew climbs aboard to take #11 to Santa Barbara. Here the assistant engineer climbs aboard with lunch in hand--not the safest move.
|
| (44K) On the return trip while at San Luis Obispo, #14 departs upon our arrival into the depot. Here at the rear end of #11 (note another green boxcar), FOUR locomotives pull #14 with an Amtrak California F59PHI locomotive in the mix.
|
| (50K) Not too exciting of a photo...EXCEPT (I had to look at it a few times for I didn't notice it WHEN I took the photo) but this car on the end of #14 pulling out of San Luis Obispo is a Transition Sleeper car deadheading to Oakland. Never have I seen a Transition Sleeper with the low end door facing out! Usually it faces the baggage car so the crew can "transition" to single level cars.
