I remember MDO talking about with all the transfers and with the transit rates Del Monte and others were using, it was necessary to have all those jobs on the board. Sad how it has all changed. Those were good days in the Bay Area. Think about the Peninsula and San Francisco, Bayshore would be loaded with cars, inbound-outbound. Oakland the same way, no room in the Desert or West Oakland for inbounds. Where did it all go.

Insofar as that East Oakland job, it was also called the East Oakland Zipper, perhaps since it left East Oakland about the time 374 would pull from the Homestead going south.
