Ground Zero for railfanning Central California

            On Winterail morning in 1994, Amtrak 702 passes Stockton Tower in Stockton, California. This San Joaquin train originated in Emeryville, and took on a load of passengers connecting from the Coast Starlight at Martinez. It will enjoy a swift trip down the San Joaquin Valley to Bakersfield on Santa Fe.

The Santa Fe interlocking tower was probably the most iconic railroad structure in Northern California. It stood at the site in Stockton where Santa Fe crossed Southern Pacific and Western Pacific. Eventually, all of the original railroads at the site disappeared into BNSF and Union Pacific. The tower eventually succumbed to progress, and was demolished five years later.
