Ah, so there really was a West Side Lumber company. Cool shot, John. A day in the life.

The good O'l days, so glad you covered this railroad. Nothing like geared engines.

Nice save John. Looks great.

Nice shot John---makes me wish I had been shooting 35mm then rather than Kodachrome 8mm movies. The #3 started operating again in the spring of 1963 (April I think) after the strike ended. It worked around the mill until that fall. In December of 1963, it was sold to Norman Clark and Roaring Camp, loaded on a flat car and went to Felton.
When first arrived in Felton, she was operated for a short time on the standard gauge SP sidings. I heard a rumer that the Roaring Camp people ran her down the SP toward Santa Cruz but I have never been able to copnfirm that.
