BOB2 running an 0-6-0 on Alameda Street?

LMAO wise guy...

SW-7's on the Street job and the Rathole, until we got SW1500's is more like it...

Meanwile, I'm drinking coffee out of my 50th anniversary LAUPT mug this morning...

And, thanks for those great videos Bruce...

It even reveals my secret identity in one of the, videos... And, one can identify from some of these many great folks who are no longer with us... It was a great truly "once in a lifetime" event, I was fortunate enough to attend. It was also the launching of a new era with the coming of Metrolink, then the Red Line, then the Gold Line, and now finally the regional connector...

And for more film footage of BOB2 running his 0-6-0, thank Ward Kimball...

Ward Kimball films of LAUPT 1939 rail parade on Alameda Street

Just a little view from the perspective of my 0-6-0...

Thanks for posting all of those...
