ATSF 5704
Title:  ATSF 5704
Description:  Sometimes an westbound freight had to wait just short of Fullerton depot for passenger trains to and from San Diego. Today ATSF 5704 West gets a few minutes of down time waiting for traffic ahead to clear. By this late date in the R/W/B era it's worth being a few minutes late to class in order to get a few photos.

ATSF 5704
Title:  ATSF 5704
Description:  Two years of road service has taken its toll on the once shiny paint scheme and a trip to the paint booth is only a few months away. But ATSF 5704 and this paint scheme will now live at the SCRM in Perris. Hopefully one day ATSF 5704 can return to Fullerton to remind a new generation of railfans what being trackside was like in the mid-1970s. Congratulations to all who participated in preserving this fine reminder of our past.
