Near sunset, as an SP light helper waits just shy of the crossover on Track One, Santa Fe 2764 roars up the stiff grade with a heavy manifest in tow.
A Santa Fe eastbound manifest grinds up Cajon Pass behind a quintet of EMD GP30s and GP35s on January 21, 1984. ATSF 2764 is the former 3264, originally 1264.
