OERM 41 |
Description: |
OERM 41 is a GE switcher, model unknown, at the Orange Empire Railway Museum in Perris, CA. Date is approximate. One other reference called it a 20-tonner but that option isn't available for this site. Note that both trucks are connected with side rods and the hoods appear smaller than those for, say, a 44- or 45-tonner. The unit was coupled to a former Union Pacific, offset side hopper. |

NCCC 601 |
Description: |
NCCC 601 (New Cornelia Copper Company) is a side-dump car, apparently, but I had no way of knowing if it was a DIFCO or not. If I read the lettering right, this car was built in 1916! Note the arch-bar trucks. That seems to be either an advertisement or an elaborate builder's plate at the right edge. Regardless, this was an unusual item or exhibit as part of the Orange Empire Railway Museum at Perris, CA in summer 1991. |

OER 104, engineer's side view |
Description: |
OER 104 is a Baldwin diesel switcher, part of the Orange Empire Railway Museum's collection. This may be an S12 or VO-1000 but I don't know for sure. Date is an estimate. We were there about three times from 1991-1993, and had a wonderful time each time, even though it was about a 200-mile round trip from Edwards AFB, my duty station at the time. I don't know much about this unit except that it's a Baldwin switcher and I wasn't about to risk getting yelled at or ordered to leave by getting too close to these exhibits! More info about this one, and other Baldwin diesels, is available at the "Baldwin Diesel Zone", or http://baldwindiesels.railfan.net/ |

My youngest son, SP U25B 3100, and me! |
Description: |
My youngest son was five years old when we took this journey to the OERM in June 1991 (estimated). He may have been a bit overwhelmed at the giant (!) locomotive he was holding onto! I think it was so special, that he's trusting me by holding on to my pants leg. That's my boy! |

A then-Santa Fe train pauses near Mojave, CA in summer 1991 (exact date uncertain). Thanks to Ron Hawkins for providing updated information. Anyway, even though this technically isn't part of the Orange Empire Railway Museum, this is still a glimpse of southern California scenery and railroading, early 1990's style. |
