Last week all of the SC&MB locomotives were out for an early evening stroll down Walker Street in Watsonville with MH 89 in the lead and SC 1102 and SC 1101 following. They just passed the old Southern Pacific station and were headed to Pajaro to move two more cuts of tank cars back to the branch line for storage. This day turned out to be one of the busiest days in decades for the branch line. There were six moves running light, and six with freight between the interchange with UP at Pajaro and the storage location on the outskirts of Watsonville.
