July 26, 1950.  Stockton, California

Looking scruffy, the 743 still has plenty of life left.  She will leave the TS in the 1960's for the Iowa Terminal and eventually find a home on the Dakota Southern.  Note the push pole mounted above the lead truck, a common tool for switchers before the 1970's.
