SBC 2309 - Mexicali BC, México - 11/14/81 |
| Description: |
A pair of Ferrocarril Sonora–Baja California diesels switch cars in the SBC's rail yard in Mexicali, Baja California, on November 14, 1981. A pair of SBC GP40-2s, two-year-old 2309 and high-nosed 2108 (built in 1973), drag a cut of freight cars in the Mexicali yard. At the border with the United States (not too much farther than the radio tower in the distance), the SBC interchanges with the Southern Pacific. Note that SBC 2309 wears the colors of Nacionales de México, indicating that the era of independent Mexican railroads would soon be drawing to a close, when the SBD was absorbed into NdeM in 1987. (Other independent railroads in México were merged with the NdeM in the 1980s as well.) -- Un par de diésel Ferrocarril Sonora-Baja California cambiaron los autos en el patio de la SBC en Mexicali, Baja California, el 14 de noviembre de 1981. Un par de SBC GP40-2s, 2309 de dos años y 2108 de nariz alta (construido en 1973), arrastre un corte de vagones de carga en esta ciudad fronteriza. En la frontera con los Estados Unidos (no mucho más lejos que la torre de radio en la distancia), el SBC se intercambia con el Pacífico Sur. Tenga en cuenta que SBC 2309 usa los colores de Nacionales de México, lo que indica que la era de los ferrocarriles mexicanos independientes pronto se cerraría, cuando el SBD se absorbió en NdeM en 1987. (Otros ferrocarriles independientes en México se fusionaron con el NdeM en la década de 1980 también.) |
