Re: SP steam question

On March 21,1957 I was inducted into the army and sent to Ft Ord. Shortly after that I am sure I saw steam on the passenger train heading toward Monterey. The date I was inducted is for sure correct. Did steam venture down to Monterey after that? Five weeks later I had a weekend pass. There were cab forwards sitting dead at Watsonville. I grew up across a field from Springfield Jct. About the end of February 1957, I heard a steam locomotive headed RR W from Eugene. He was attempting to wear out his whistle. I went in the house and told my dad, you better come outside, the last steam locomotive is leaving town. Anyone have an exact date for last steam out of Eugene?
Thanks Jim Spicer
