Those are great pictures. I like the mismatched trucks! Michael

Friends, Today I am posting two photos of SN caboose 1613 from negatives in my collection for your enjoyment, enlightenment and approval. The first is a Wilbur C. Whittaker view taken in Chico on 25

Birney 62 at the museum is painted for the older scheme.? So no help in establishing the newer colors. Best, Ken

They have a Sacramento Birney at the Rio Vista Museum.? I don't remember how they chose to paint it. Ken

I can’t help but think there was a restored PG&E car that used to run on the K Street mall in Sacramento. It may not be 100% accurate, as to car type, but they might be pictures that would help with
