SP 3826
Title:  SP 3826
Description:  By the late 1980's leaked oil and litter was becoming a common sight around Espee properties. This scene, looking north, is something you would expect to find across the border in Mexico rather than on the once proud Espee. Hey, it may be trashy but at least the power is interesting with over a half dozen GP9s including SP 3826 idling away on this Saturday morning. On Monday they will all be back to work, but in only a decade they, and the Espee itself, will be gone for good.

The WGCR kept a stable roster of these three units during several lean years due to drought.  The contrast of paint mixes shows the "pink lady" on the end and one of the original units now nore oxide than red.

SP 3834
Title:  SP 3834
Description:  In 1982, Los Angeles experimented with commuter trains between downtown and Oxnard, in nearby Ventura County. Is was underfunded and poorly executed and, with average daily ridership of just 130 commuters per day, lasted only five months. On the evening of December 2, 1982, train #101 (Los Angeles to Oxnard) departs Union Station with leased Cal Train equipment - SP GP9R 3834 (ex-SP 3707, nee-SP 5844) with a full light package, and a pair of ex-SP gallery coaches (the second io full Cal Train colors). In 1992, a vastly improved commuter system, Metrolink, began service, which continues to this day.
