Here we are in the Boyle Heights section of Los Angeles, just outside of Downtown LA, where we see a bunch of switchers as they sit and rest before doing more hard work the next day. We are on Myer Road, which is a street the runs right up to the tracks, where a bunch of food plants are located and are served by the railroad, so if you want, you can go out here and be in public, and not be trespassing. Anyway, here is the rundown of what is sitting here. We have an old and tired looking 1190, which is an SW1500. We then see 4 GenSet Green Goats sitting in a row. In order behind the 1190, they are 2708, 2702, 2705, and 2707. If you have any questions about the video, feel free to message me. Comments are welcome. The video was taken on December 16th, 2008.
