You are corect. And aftrer I blew the cobwebs out of my metnal archives, do remember they were used on the hump. It was later they were used at the yard office due to their pulling power for doubling and (tripling )over cuts of cars out the (classification) bowl tracks uptown to the east/north departure yard tracks.

The engines that replaced the Baldwins were 1100 series EMD's cow and calfs that had been used as Suisun helpers to shove the schellville bound trains over I-80.

Wow !! George must be really old as I was #61 on the hogger's seniorty list in `82, could'nt find him listed.

Thanks again for the nice pix, Drew.

And tnx to Paul Kepler who gives me a heads up on the list and forum here from time to time.
