1972.  Stockton, California

TS second 745 rests at the WP's Stockton Roundhouse, the home terminal for Tidewater jobs since the 1950's.  The 745 was no stranger to these tracks, having been built as WP 552.  In just 4 years, the 745 will become the last locomotive owned by the TS, a short-lived honor until it is sold to the Stockton Terminal and Eastern as a parts engine.  It resides at the ST&E still.
