Milpitas 1978 Question

Does anyone recall the symbols of the SP locals to the Ford plant on the
Milpitas Line?

As I'm scanning the slides from my 1978 San Jose visit, I have the shot above and a few others of a turn that came in with empty autoracks and left with loaded autoracks (came in from
the north, and left heading back north again).

I'm just curious if this was a once a day operation that had a specific symbol
and/or name that someone remembers, or was this one of a dozen such trains a day
and there's simply no way to tell what it is?
