SP 8573
Title:  SP 8573
Description:  ALRAY CA Sept 7 1983 -- This SD40T-2 and three other tunnel motors are hauling an autorack train. Visible above the rear of the lead unit are balloons and a man in shorts. While we were perched in the rocks he drove up in a van with awell-dressed woman. He set up an eifht-foot table and attached balloons to it. After about 30 minutes of wandering around looking at the setup with the woman posing (clothed) he packed up and left. Darned if I know what he was doing. Maybe he was hoping we would leave.
