Western Pacific 2-8-0 # 37 leading a freight train over the high bridge, at the west entrance to Altamont Pass in 1936.





Although I never lived anywhere near the Western Pacific Railroad had operated, or seen this railroad firsthand...I was always fascinated by the old WP nonetheless. The steam era WP in particular.

I spotted this photo recently on the intrnet, at a site known as Yesteryear Depot. Com, wich is now a Link page to the right of Your computer screen.

This photo was taken ion location at northern California's Altamont Pass way back in 1936.
