Southern Pacific action along some classic SP lines – from 1971 to 1999! This is a final look at SP’s California Coastline and related branchlines. Heavy action on the Tehachapi Line and Bakersfield Yard, with views back in 1971 and in 1993 as a comparison. This is a wealth of early SP power including the memorable ALCOs and old U-boats. See Beet Trains, Coal Drags, Mixed Freight and the “Oil Can” trains. See the Coastline for a final-look at locals, heavy mainline freight trains and many of its famous branch line operations. We bring you lots of great branch line action in many California scenic and quaint locations. This was the SP we all came to love! Don’t miss out on the real Southern Pacific!

  1. Dan

    Part railfan video, part history lesson and part documentary — it’s the hallmark of Charles Smiley Presents. And “Scarlet And Gray Memories” is another winner! The footage in this program spans nearly 30 years (some of it is now 50 years old), and there are plenty of smile-producing Southern Pacific moments, including sugar beet trains and oil can trains and some SP-lettered units in the ill-fated Kodachrome paint scheme. Classic equipment, legendary locations and the Charles Smiley flair for great storytelling make this a great addition to any railfan video library.

  2. Dylan Jones

    Watching this video shows all of the classic ESPEE you can think of. Big GE, Tunnel Motor EMD’s, SD-9’s, Geeps, Kodachrome, and speed lettered locmotives. All shot by one of the best in the railfan video industry!
