If you look quick you can see a steam locomotive in the Amtrak maintenance yard.

If you look quick you can see a steam locomotive in the Amtrak maintenance yard.

It's Santa Fe 4-8-4 No. 3751, to which much of this report is devoted: South By Southwest Chief. Photos and videos of this fine locomotive in action! When not out and about it lives at the Amtrak L.A. Maintenance Facility adjacent to the Redondo Junction flyover, and can be seen from passing trains.

Santa Fe 3751 leads the Grand Canyon Limited at Barstow, California, 5-14-12.
