Full page view of SN Train Sheet from page 16

This is a scan of Sacramento Northern Dispatcher's Record of Movement of Trains for Thursday, March 18, 1971. Note that the Chico Local's first 44-tonner, No. 145, failed at East Arboga, causing the engineer and a brakeman to hitch a ride back to Yuba City for No. 144, which then completed the run to Haggin. Train sheets are usually full of unusual events such as this.
