Both locals had a rare treat on them, the Sunkist Local had a rare GP38 on point of it's train. We chased it for about a mile before it reached the yard and turned around. Then we chased it back toward the main where we left it for the BNSF Pasadena Local with a Santa Fe yellowbonnet on point. Santa Fe yellowbonnets are extremely rare on the Pasadena local and we wanted to make sure we caught it. We waited about 2 hours for the local to finally appear. Unlike the UP Local the BNSF wasn't chase-able because it doesn't stop anywhere and the yard was only a short distance. These trains were great to catch despite them not being major trains.
