On Sunday, March 28, 2010, Golden Gate Railroad Museum's (GGRM) Southern Pacific (SP) 4-6-2 Class P8 Pacific 2472 was in Niles Canyon being towed backwards by Pacific Locomotive Association's (PLA) SP SD9 (SD9E) 5472 which was on the west end of the train. The location is called Estates Crossing which is just west of Niles Canyon Railway's Brightside Yard. Though it looks like the 2472 is a manned rear end DPU, it is not! GGRM's SP 2472 is a Baldwin Locomotive Works built SP Class P-8, 4-6-2. Reportedly it was built in 1921, builders number 54477. It was vacated in 1957 and donated to San Mateo County in 1959. In 1976 a group of volunteers started restoring the locomotive. This group became the GGRM, the current owner-operator of SP 2472.

I got a sneak peek at the #nilescanyonrailway Holiday Lights Train tonight.
#nilescanyon
Train going around a gentle curve, it is covered with Christmas lights, which makes even the track ballast and shrubbery glow. Looking between train cars, from one dimly but pink lit car into a very festively lit up on Inside a fabulously ornate wood paneled parlor car Riding in a dome car. It is night outside but the lights on the outside of the train are illuminating the scenery with a creepy blue glow.

Sneaking around in #nilescanyon.
A yellow UP engine seen through an archway of oak trees. An access panel is open so that you can see some of the machinery inside.

#NilesCanyon Stroll & Roll was amazing again this year. Here’s my time lapse from the event 2 years ago, my guess is an even bigger crowd this year!

Tea this afternoon was at Tyme For Tea in Niles Canyon, Fremont. Thankfully, it wasn’t as hot as it could’ve been. 🫖📚🌹 #nilescrane #nilescanyon
