GP38-2s 676 and 668, U30B 845, and GP35 715 (location unknown) in August 1973.
GP35 715 at Oklahoma City, Oklahoma (date unknown).
This photograph was taken just prior to the train crossing South Santa Fe Street. It has just departed the Frisco’s Oklahoma City Yard and crossed the North Canadian River. The photo was taken looking northeast from the Santa Fe Railroad overpass.
After crossing under the Santa Fe, just to the west, the train will run south of the Oklahoma City Union Station. This depot was a joint operation between the Rock Island and Frisco.
Special thanks to Mark Davidson.

GP38-2 428 and GP35 715 at Tulsa, Oklahoma in May 1980. The third unit is unidentified (Trackside Slides).
The train is eastbound and has just crossed the Arkansas River. Cherokee Yard is on the West side of the river. The rails in the background are Sand Springs Railways Yard and a little further west SSR interchanges with SLSF. SSR still exists today. The refineries in the background are still operational.
The area still generally looks the same today as it did in 1980.
Special thanks to Paul Slavens.
