"5000+ feet of snap track...hmmmm..."

Who says all of it has to be left in place
after the locomotive and tender have passed
over it? Just pick up the sections and put
them in front of the locomotive -- that's
what we did back in 1990 when we moved the
SP 2472 within the San Mateo County Fairgrounds
and then we joined up the snap track to the
SP main line. Then we were off to SF, to our
new home at Hunters Point Naval Shipyard.
(Sure was nice to have TWO buildings and a small
yard to use! Ahhhh....that came to an end in
2006, and now we are guests of the PLA in
Niles Canyon, CA.)
