date unknown. Aurora, California. The small yard at Aurora hosts a good percentage of the Tidewater's motive power and caboose roster in this shot. Along with electric 106 behind caboose
305, the 44 tonner is probably waiting for another steam hauled train to need its guidance down Ninth Street. Caboose 305 has been preserved and will be put on display along the old right of way very near to the former site of Aurora.
