Tidewater Southern Westbound at Turner

Turner is located on the TS just east of Highway 99. In the summer of 1970, "new" power on the Tidewater, in the form of two RS-1's from the Spokane International, replaced aging 70 tonners and loaner WP switchers. The RS-1's expedited long perishable freights to the WP connection in Stockton. TS 746 is making a good 40 mph as it lugs a long train past Turner.
