I got called for a train with an unusual symbol- the "U KELSDG1 01M." It was an empty military train going to San Diego. Flat cars that are used to carry military equipment. It said that the cars were the property of the U.S. Army. Now, I lived in San Diego for 35 years. I know that San Diego is a Navy town and a Marine town. But there is not a large Army base there. I can't explain it. It was a good trip. We tied it down on the Rio Seco track. It was a light train, less than 3,000 tons. I only had to tie one brake. They told us to see the terminal manager before we tied up. They flipped us. We had to wait a while before the van showed up. It did show up and they took us back to Needles. I should go out tonight around midnight. No pictures.
