| Post subject: | Redondo panoramic photo on sale |
Pentrex sale on this giant panoramic photo of the Redondo Junction roundhouse in Los Angeles, which was just destroyed a couple of years ago. Photo is normally $30, just $5 until tomorrow. http://www.pentrex.com/panr.html Unfortunately, no one saw the potential to save the building and recreate a scene similar to this. It would have made a grand and authentic Santa Fe motive power museum. I'm told the Amtrak facility that was supposedly to be built on part of the roundhouse footprint did not overflow onto it. No. 3751 is still stored there, now out in the open. For further reading, see my caustic "Big Plans for Fullerton, No Plans for Redondo" in the RyPN editorials section, written before the building was demolished. |
