Donner Pass about 1977

Here is a little snip from about 1977. Starts with Fred 4 and shows Amtrak, UP and the Santa Fe.

I’m aware that there is no way that all is on Donner Pass but I can’t tell where the desert areas are.

Still it’s interesting to me

919 W 5th St Chico, California 1985

Chico Amtrak Station May 1985

The Chico station looks pretty good in the slide from may of 1985.

Now is looks pretty haggard, ( Click to see on Google Machine ) You have to zoom in a bit to really snoop around the station.

2021 Sad with windows boarded up
Pay phone is gone
AC was upgraded from the window hanger

There are a few 2017 & 2019 images at this link > IMAGES < that show the exterior and interior. Used to look nice, wish we could take better care of things
