Waxdale 1965
The second section of Santa Fe's San Francisco Chief rounds a curve at allowable track speed near the Waxdale oil field in 1965. The F7 A-B-B-A power leads a variety of head-end equipment including a mail container flatcar, and hi-level cars reassigned from the El Capitan pool. The SF Chief also carried sleepers on its journey — dropping some off and picking up others along the way — providing service to cities in Texas as well as to travelers between Chicago and California's Bay Area.
