Here's two team tracks for the price of one. And in these two Teams just about anything is handled. On the left is the Santa Fe (now bsnf) Vernon Team & on right is Los Angeles Junction Ry Fruitland team. At both Teams products are unloaded then put in trucks. The Vernon Team does mostly "shapes" as Santa Fe calls metal products. They come in boxcars to the transfer dock. The crane unloads coil cars. flat cars & gondolas. The ramp is used to unload flat cars of things that be driven off. The Fruitland side unloads covered hoppers w/ grain & plastic pellets. Airslides w/ flour also get unloaded there. Recently they have been shipping out dirty dirt cans out in well cars. There's also aluminum ingot stacks scattered around both teams.The address for seeing the Teams in Bing, Google & historicaerials.com is 2695 Fruitland Ave 90058.
