Sweet photo spot Craig. While other railfans might cringe at the site of dirty SP untis on an equally dirty ugly concrete L.A. River scene - I love it! But yuck, looks like the SP 7466 was following a Farmer John pig stock car train or something ;) Typical stopped train scene here on the East Bank at Main Street with the SP 7466 at the hold signal location leading to Shops Yard past Possum Belly Curve diamonds. EXCEPT you appear to have the SP 9808 East (South) on the move running around the PCX. This is exactly where I railfanned as a kid on many a Father-and-son Saturdays spent with the Espee and the L.A. River corridor.

Now that I think about it, Ryan, the 9808 was the train that was moving in this shot. The 7466 headed into the yard after the 9808 got by. (No wonder you're a Dodgers fan ... I didn't realize you were from LA originally!)
