SP La Verne Turn

SP La Verne Turn at North Pomona, with the ATSF Second District in the background.   SP served some industrial parks in the area, and this was as far east as the train went.

Returning west in La Verne. In the background can be seen a control tower for the NHRA Pomona Dragstip.


At the site of the old depot. Further west at San Dimas, SP was still delivering  helium cars to a customer.
Link here to a Kansas Historical Foundation photo of helium cars.

    The top photo, if I recall correct this photo faces west. The grade crossing you see is now where the entrance is to the North Pomona Metrolink station.
