SP 1455         
An SP SD40 lends a bit of extra dynamic breaking effort on this westbound descending to Bakersfield. SP C-40-4 class caboose 1455 was built in 1961 by Pacific Car and Foundry; this SP caboose class was the prototype for the familiar Athearn blue box bay window caboose. Date of photo approximate.
