The Englewood Ramp in 1989

March 11, 2010

SP MP15AC 2725 pulls past SP's Houston Englewood Ramp on July 4, 1989

We’re on the east side of Houston on a steamy July 4, 1989. Looking east from the Waco Street overpass provides a good overview of SP’s Houston intermodal facility, located at the far west end of Englewood yard

MP15AC 2725 is pulling west on main 1 with a cut of cars. The first car is a “5-pack” spine car, commonly seen in COFC service before double-stacking became the norm for containers.
