The Oak Park Daylight passing through Stocton.


I photographed this digital live sound video recently, at the Oak Park Society of Model Engineers,H.O Scale Model Railroad Club.

Myself and a few other members of the club, are also fans of the former Southern Pacific Railroad. The famous red, orange and black "Daylight" passenger trains of the old S.P, were lengendary in their days in the west coast states of Arizona, California and Oregon.

With a little immagination, the former S.P could have operated a train out of Chicago known as "The Oak Park Daylight". May Chicago railfan's would have appreciated that. So here it is passing by on the club layout.
