    Santa Fe 3751 arrives into Fullerton from LA for the annual Railroad Days festival held each May.
    Although being towed by BNSF 7558, the 3751 appears to be doing most of the work. Also in the consist were an-ex ATSF baggage and Amtrak Pacific Parlour 39975 'Willamette Valley' and a Superliner Sleeper, with the latter two to be put on display for the weekend.

    D7561, 7561, 25211The last non-preserved Class 25 to be broken up.
    D7561 heads northbound passing Coundon Road station signal box with the last loaded 6M43 04.05 Ripple Lane - Charringtons oil train, the date is May 7th 1986. After unloading at Charringtons the Class 25 will take the train south, now as the 7E53 13.42 Charringtons - Ripple Lane.
    The twenty year eight month career of D7561/25211 was spent entirely allocated to London Midland Region depots.
