Estimible Mr. Jacksich - As a one time resident of the Valley of Heart's Delight (I refuse to use its modern cognomen)from the 1960's and frequent visitor in the 1950's , and being a few years younger than your good self, I was a bit late to appreciate and photograph SP Trains 98 and 99 behind the Daylight-painted F Units, 'tho I fancy remembering riding behind them on 98 on one of my early dpartures out of the Willow Glen (Cutoff) Station. I know well your shot of 76 doing the station work with what look like Black Widow or Bloody Nose F's from the way old days of AP. Just wondering if you have or have posted a picture of the Daylight Diesels @ Cahill St., or elsewhere for that matter. Thank you in advance from one who remembers the blossoms and the numberless orchards of long ago.
