Rare Locomotive! LAJ Railway

This Locomotive is a CF-7.

LAJ- Las Angeles Junction Railway!

The company is a switch carrier for BNSF and UP. They transport to Vernon, san pedro, Maywood, Bell and Commerce !

These locomotives are hard to find because they are locked up always and fenced off! Luckly for me i saw one sitting out in the A yard and decided to film it! Enjoy

71 was our best puller. CF 7's were excellent switchers. The LNG's (on the other hand) offer excellent visibility, but load rather slowly and-back in the day- would shut down without warning in the dead of summer.

They switch industries in the cities of Vernon, Maywood, Bell, and Commerce. Oh yea... The Cf7's are still parked, resting, on the LAJ house tracks. Not fenced up or locked or anything like that. I should know. I work there.
