My version of Union Pacific's Santa Cruz local

[CoastStarlight11]

I used to live in Aptos, California for almost 20 years just south of Santa Cruz along the route of Union Pacific's Santa Cruz Local train. I shot a hand full of videos of that UP Santa Cruz Local train over the years.

Nice model. That would have been one of the longer SC locals...

[ThomasRivette]

Arn't they the same?

[Amtrakdavis22]

Well I was talking about just the day to day amount the local would have on it. I watched it via computer for a little and somedays there would have been 2 cars other days 20. That's what I was meaning to say?

[ThomasRivette]

I see. This one has 10 cars though.

[Amtrakdavis22]

Yeah it's just recently before Serra got a hold of it, that line was really quiet. Most only had a few cars. It was a nice model. The scenery looked really good.

[ThomasRivette]

Thanks, glad you liked my layout. Oh by the way its Sierra, not Serra.

[Amtrakdavis22]

Serra is their reporting mark.
