SD45s 908 and 913 at St. Louis, Missouri in June 1973.

The locomotives are on the west side of the diesel shop at Lindenwood Yard. They are sitting on Shop Track 1. This is the southern most of four tracks that enter the shop. It is late afternoon in early summer just before sunset.

The view is looking northeast.

Special thanks to Mark Davidson.

SD45 908

SD45 908 at Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.

The train is westbound of the Chickasha Subdivision. It has just departed East Yard and crossed the North Canadian River. The roadway in front of the locomotives is South Santa Fe Street. Beyond the street the train will pass under the North/South Santa Fe Railroad mainline. Just to the west beyond the underpass is the joint Frisco/Rock Island Oklahoma City Union Depot.

The photographer is standing on the rise for the Santa Fe main tracks. This elevated grade separation was constructed to the east of the downtown business district in the early 1930s. Eight blocks North is the Santa Fe’s (now Amtrak) depot.

The view is looking northeast.

Special thanks to Mark Davidson.
