HFF Cuesta Pass California USA 3rd November 1978

Back in the distant past I rode the Coast Starlight to Los Angeles behind Amtrak SDP40F diesels 618 & 537. We were held at a red light in Cuesta Pass on the Southern Pacific route north of San Louis Obispo about 190 miles northwest of LA. We had left Oakland at 07.35 on the first leg of my 3-day, 2350 mile journey back to New Orleans. HFF (and a wave from me too!) everyone. Have a great weekend.
