I do not know how many shots I have taken from
Pepper Avenue bridge in my life, but here is a little
one that shows the crew "lounge".
Circa 1980 If you are not a local railfan, and thus unfamiliar with
this view, you are looking roughly north (RR WEST) from
the south end of the yard; the balloon track for L.A. bound
trains is behind me.

It's March of 1997 in this photo, and things look sort of the same as they did a year earlier...  |

West Colton was well known for having a lot of rail traffic between 2 AM and 11 AM on Sundays.

West Colton Yard was the major Southern Pacific yard in Southern California replacing Taylor Yard in Los Angeles.
The other major yard in California was in Roseville, California.
